Well some people might know that bearings can be rather difficult to remove if you dont have a big giant press,so i have been using this method,it works extremely well,and is simple.
All you need is a nice,and a set of sockets that you dont use anymore(if you dont want to get your good ones all messed up with marks).
What you want to do is find the biggest socket that will fit just right into the bearing hole,and on the other side get a bigger socket so when you push the bearing out,the bearing goes into the bigger socket without anything being in the way.
If you need extra leverage just get a bar or anything that you can find that will turn the vice handle,This also works for pressing in bearings too,just make sure you are even when you are just about to press the bearing in
