I am going to press in new bearing and the quesiton is where to apply
pressure - inner or outer race.  They are not in the same plane,  inner
race in wider.  It is hard to find  metal bushing-driver I can use on
the outer race - it should have very specific ID and OD.  I actulally
destroyed old bearing and was going to use outer race as driving bushing
but... the bearing sits and inch below the clutch surface and if I drive
the new bearing all the way down I will not be able to remove "driving
tool".   It leaves me with only option to presson inner race.   I am
afraid it will damage the bearing.  Or not?

Thanks for you input.

Konstantin.
