clutch case bearing

[gr race]

So what is the trick to removing the bearing in the clutch cover that the primary drive goes into?

[markvette]

put the cover in the oven at 400 degrees for about 10 to 15 minutes and if it dont fall out in the oven it will pop right out.

exactly what Mark said or if you have access to a Blind Bearing Tool that works great too.

if you need the bearing they have them on ebay. i just bought 2 last night for $2.99 for both. the number is 638Z.

Use a piece of white bread!!!!!!

Just keep pulling off little chunks and use a punch as close to the i.d. of the bearing as possible and keep tapping and stuffing and it will shove it out. I thought one of the smartest builders I know was crazy for this but it does work

I tried the oven and it still wouldn't come out, but the bread thing,now that's cool. Pushes it right up.

Marks trick works,

I did ours 2 weeks ago with the oven trick. Preheated to 400 deg., put it in for 10 minutes, took it out and barely had to pull on it with a curved pick! Popped right out! But watch out, it will be very hot (DUH) I used oven mits. Made the wife happy! Be sure to clean off all of the grease etc you can... can kinda stink!
