head bearing removal
Ive got the head bearings off but am struggling to get the lower one off, Ive heated it up but it wont budge - I dont have a puller, any advice?

It's gotta be pressed butt. Gotta press the shaft thru the lower clamp.

Cut the outer race first, then part way through inner race, it should knock off then

Re: head bearing removal
Use a dremel to grind the outer race, remove it along with the ball bearings, carefully grind the inner race to weaken it and a few blows with a sharp chisel it should pop off.
