NEED HELP removing swingarm bearings

[jayhawk25]

I have a junk 300ex swing arm with good bearings, and a newly chromed swing arm without bearings for my project ex. Whats the best way to remove the bearings without special tools or damaging them?

find a socket the same size as the bearings and use it with a big hammer to knock the old bearings out. Apply lots of WD-40 to the old bearings before beating on them.

Use the socket as rico says but I use a press or the vise to apply constant pressure. The hammer works but will probably damage the bearing

I am needing to get the bearings out where it attaches to the frame. They only go in one way and am not sure how they come out.

those will be ruined to get them out, you'll need new ones:(
