lonestar axle carrier, how do I remove bearings?

[big_poppa49]

So I finally got everything apart and it is a Lonestar bearing carrier and I cant get the bearings out. Is there any trick to this?

Also, what bearings do I need to get when I finally get these out? From what I can see there are two bearings, one on each side with a tube in the middle

and there is a grease fitting on the carrier

PLZ help! I want to get these bearings ordered and put back in so I can ride!

anything?

I tried baking the thing on 250* for about 20 min and still stuck in there.

torch on the outside carrier surface only? It was worth the extra few buck's and replace the whole thing on my rebuild.

i just did my 450r twin row a few days ago. HEated outside of carrier where bearings sit w/ propane torch then just tapped the carrier on the workbench. I put 2 2x4's apart wider then the bearings but so the carrier itself still hit it and the bearings fell right out once i hit it on the 2x4's a few times. Once one side was out i just used a big socket with extension on sticking out of the other side and smacked a cpl times with hammer.

Hope this helps a little.

Ok. I will try a torch. Is there a bearing puller that will work on this also?

And, is this the bearings I need to buy??
