Any tips on how to get a completely stuck bearing carrier out?
I tried following everything the manual says however, 2 of these haven't worked.
So far, I have tried:
- penetrating oil
- hammering the ears, as instructed by the manual
- using a Gear puller
- heating with a hairdryer
- hammering the casing
- slide hammer, with strap between each ear
The last option that seems to remain (and the manual says "least desirable") is clamping / bolting it to a rack and, hammering the lower unit until it comes free.

When hammering the ears, I get up to 10mm of movement (after about 20 blows) side to side but, nothing fonward. I've attached a photo for illustration.
Any idea/tips for getting it out?
