    Your can also just weld a short bead on the bearing race surface 180 degrees apart...........the weld shrinks the race and most times will just fall out.

    Yup, we do this with many of our press fit bushings in the turbine world.. Then we get to play with Liquid Nitrogen to get them back in..
