Technique is learned over time.   And I prefer to help NON mechanics and th=
e young whippersnappers., however a good exchange of information by us adva=
nced oldies ---may just rub off on the younger set.Hagar has done thousands=
 of ball and roller bearings  ---Inner race for a beginner could give troub=
les. Hagar uses carbon rod and dc welder on stubborn ones.Carbon rod does n=
ot STICK like a welding rod does for beginners.Can even be done with two ca=
r batteries in series,if you have no access to welder.If you are going to b=
uy a puller get a GOOD one.Not the Chinese pigiron shit flooding the market=
.The best puller here is a very old "Craftsman"  super Yankee steel.Warning=
 curved arms works like springs when bearing or gears let go------happened =
here ---will never forget it.Pulled a gear on a crankshaft ---should have l=
eft bolt on and loose.More an other time.    Gary I saw that Vila add and l=
ots of those new weapons sure works . The Aluminium Boa Constrictor strapwr=
ench is great on Rabbits.      Hagar.
Ps: was that Vila thing a "speedwrench"?   fits All ----socket.?.
