Best way to remove bottom bearing from clutch actuation arm.

I use heat as well, haven't tried the freeze and heat methind on those bearings. Crank bearing installation get the freeze and heat method.

I had a blind bearing puller, unfortunately it wasn't long enough to reach the bottom bearing, as a result I built a longer version to do the same job.

I picked up a blind bearing puller from harbor frieght. Love that place.

tunster:
a couple of great ideas there worthy of a tryout.Think i might suggest we eat some food from the freezer tonight[as its pretty full and im gonna need some space!]i did wonder about the builders bolt thing and i could try it on the old top bearing first to get a good fit.Also that slide hammer and price look great but dont know what the total cost would be by the time ive had it shipped to the uk? Great ideas keep em coming!! :wink:

tunster:
on closer inspection tonight i thought i might try the bolt idea.Found a good fit wall plug bolt but the top of the bearing lip has gone and all im left with is the outer edge of the bearing case so i dont think it will work  :?as theres nothing to grip under.More ideas guys????

I have the same question and was looking at the blind hole puller from HF but I don't think it goes small enough?? has anyone bought one and tried it?
