H42 Front Bearings Removal (1 Viewer)

[Steamer]

FSM says use the SST. I don't have it.

I didn't want to grind on my pullers arms.

So I did this for both bearings.
Insert two of the bearing retainer bolts for fulcrums.
Two large screwdrivers into the snap ring slot and pry it out some.
Back out the bolts a bit and pry some more.
When the back of bearing is exposed you can pry on it.
Super easy and fast.

I didn't realize these were in here this loose. I will give this a try this weekend!

Mine were not loose at all but the leverage is great with the fulcrum that close to the resistance.

I tried grinding the jaws for a puller to reach into the holes on the outer race and it did not work. I also found out that the fit is not that tight and they do come out easy.
