As Jim said a thin bearing remover should do it. You may have to modify it slightly to fit better. I am spoiled but grateful I have a full compliment of Kr wilson tools for the job. They make quick work of it and never fail.
Be careful using 3 jaw pullers as they will not work and distort the bearing unless of course you don’t care about them.
All the best!
