Thread: How do I remove this bearing?

I'm assuming their should be a pic yea?

EDIT, there it is!

There is now. Says something about this forum (a good thing) -- I posted it without a pic, took me 90 seconds max to put the pic in after I realised, but already someone's ready to help!!! You couldn't pay for this sort of response.

Very hard to see what it all is, a rear wheel carrier?

If the bit with the stub has not much attached, you could drift it out with a brass drift, taking care not to damage the thread, maybe a pic of the whole thing?....maybe just wiggle, wiggle, lift

Yes it's a wheel carrier that I need to seperate the two parts of, it came assembled. Instructions said "just remove the cap and the bearing". Cap was easy, bearing not so and I don't want to force it with a screwdriver. There was a nut on the centre thread which I've removed. Tried lifting it out after I took the nut off, no go.

I'd be trying a bit of spray, wiggleing and rocking the wheel carrier, keep in mind you can give it a little oomph, maybe a little influence under the wheel carrier in the form of a saft faced hammer, close to the bearing, it should come, it won;t be interence fit......unless they got it wrong

Tried that, it's beyond my strength to separate it. I can't see what sort of bearing puller would be needed but then again I don't know much about bearing pullers. It's annoying because I've got the time lined up to install it now and if I can't get it apart then I'm stuck before I begin.

Is it a tapered bearing like on the Kaymar carriers? They lock on pretty well, I used a 3 prong puller to release the one on my old Disco. From memory it just needed a little bit and it let go.

ok, from reading the replies and looking at the pic, the tapered roller race, [the 'cone'] is tight on the threaded shaft, yep?
you might like to wack a heat gun, oxy or any other heating device on it to expand the centre ring of the cone, the bit that the threaded shaft slides through.
and a few well positioned hits with a big hammer should move it.
the problem appears to be that mr kaymar's shaft is a bit high on diameter.
and,
i didn't see why you want to remove it.
if it is just to lubricate it, then don't worry about removing it, just force grease down into it.
