DISASSEMBLY
1. Remove the retaining ring from the bearing carrier.
2. From the back side, tap on the outer bearing race
with a drift punch in the reliefs as shown.
NOTE
Drive bearing out evenly by tapping on outer race only.
Once bearing is at bottom of casting, support casting on
outer edges so bearing can be removed.
3. Inspect the bearing.
NOTE
Due to extremely close tolerances and minimal wear,
the bearings must be inspected visually, and by feel.
While rotating bearings by hand, inspect for rough
spots, discoloration, or corrosion. The bearings should
turn smoothly and quietly, with no detectable up and
down movement and minimal movement sideways
between inner and outer race.
4. Inspect bearing housing for scratches, wear or
damage. Replace housing if damaged.
