I got both bearings to move out/in 1/2 inch. I'm thrilled. I washed the binding surfaces with Kroil and lots of fine rust came out. 2cycles of in/oil. I also wondered if I pounding on the right place?? By using a bad uni I can put lots of pressure on the inside of the race. I don't have a tube shaped poundee to move the outside of the bearing. thus the ball bearing section is taking up some of the pounding force,
I'm off to take Momma to lunch and me a beer (When Momma asked what I was doing and would the tranny ever be useable I gave the wrong answer: no. I said this is a learning situation for me as I'm sure the gears themselves are rust-ruint… They came the "WHY???"
