Help bearing race removal F1 hub
 

I'm trying to get the inner and outer races out of the hub, I was able to find a socket to fit the outer race #09195 and drive it out. The inner race #14276 looks like it would need to be pulled out, I tried a punch and chisel but I didn't want to bugger up the hub. Any ideas, also best place to get parts?
Thanks

Run a bead of weld on the bearing surface. When it cools off it will shrink and fall out

What aspect of this are having a problem with?

I knocked quite few inner races out of all the different styles of F-1 and F-100 hubs with a regular old flat nosed punch.

On the hubs with-out notches, you just got to work your way around, evenly, driving it a little at a time.

I likewise have always used a punch.

The only punch I have is a little short, so it's quite an angle and it's messing up the inner edge of the hub. I'll take a trip to the hardware store to see if I can pick up a longer better made one.

You really need to ask for a "drift" rather than a punch. A drift has a flat surface ground on the end doing the driving, rather than the point on a punch. DD

Use a piece of keystock; the "average" stuff isn't hardened so it won't damage the bearing race and it's easy to grind to whatever angle you need on the end. What I was trained to do when I went through the apprenticeship 45 years ago...

You will most likely need a good set of drift punches for other projects anyway.

Looking at those hubs for the first time a few months back I marveled at the inaccessibility to that bearing race.
1/4" keystock is what I used when I did the job.
Easy to get the right profile on it with a grinder...... just what the doctor
ordered.

check the tool cataloges many mainstream tool brands actually supply bearing drifts which are the correct length and shape
