Hi Flint,

Hope you are well?

I have hit a dilema, the casing has just come back from powder coating and looks great, the only snag is the needle bearing inside the lower case has seezed with sand from shot blasting, I am afraid I forgot to take it out and didn't think about the effects on it. I am going to replace it and see it as a replaceable part but does anyone know how to remove it. Is the cup on the outside of the casing part of it and do you just tap it through? I guess it goes from the outside in becase there is a lip on the inside edge of the bearing inside the casing.

Thanks, any help would be appreciated, I can't believe I was daft enough to leave the needle bearing in

Thanks
Simon
