John,

There is a snap ring in there....at least mine has one. Once that is out I
think you can take a socket and tap it out from the other side.

At least this is what I did and it seemed to work. I guess if it can't be
removed easily you can whack it out and if you have damaged the carrier
bearing they aren't that expensive to replace.

Let us know how you make out....Ian

I'm taking apart the swingarm of my '69 Ambo, having trouble getting
the U-joint carrier bearing out of the swingarm housing. I know it's an
interference fit. I've tried heating the housing, cooling the bearing
and it doesn't budge. The last one I did fell out by itself. This one's
got me going 'Hmmmm?...
Does anyone have a favorite trick for this?
