I didn't realize the motion pro kit had a bearing race remover. That would've save me a lot of headache. I ended up welding a rod on the race to hit it out. The lip between the frame and race is so small, I couldn't get anything to find purchase on it.
It is very difficult or impossible, as you can touch clamp with grinder. In fact, it’s not easy to cut inner race: no space and disc has rather big diameter. You can't cut 90 degree lines only curves. Vacuum hose we use to minimize smell and dust, as we have not a workshop, but video studio.
@@Stuntex thank you very much for your reply, i am having the same problem right now with mine, I was planning to buy the tool but I can see is not worth it, I saw a video where the guy got the shaft out of the base and replaced the bearing that way, maybe that could be another solution just I don't have a shop press like the one he used, but is better to but one for the same price as the bearing extractor tool.
@@Stuntex Ahhhh I see, so it's the weakness that relieves the pressure. In the end this tool proved useless for me for installing the new bearing. It comes with 4x adaptors and only 1x collar.... MotionPro don't even manufacture the collars to fit the remaining adaptors which is crazy!
park tool makes a great lower bearing race puller.. www.walmart.com/ip/Park-Tool-CRP-2-Universal-Lower-Steering-Stem-Bearing-Puller/888028562 this fits around the thicker lower part of the race or dust seal and is less prone to break the race when pulling
