pilot bearing removal tool like this?

[Richard J Lebens]

I have a S-K 92522 that looks very similar to that.  The local parts
store rents one that looks like that made by OTC.

I have used both with good results.  RX-7's have roller bearings for
pilot bearings that are in there really tight.  The OTC one removed the
bearing race after I had broken out all the pins and the front lip and
part of the back lip.  The second one with the proper tool came right
out in about two minutes start to finish compared to the day it took
with the first one before I went to the  parts store and got the tool.

A pro mechanic told me that a roller bearing is overkill for a pilot
bearing and it will last three times the life of the car. YMMV
