Use chisel from the inside and hit it hard with a bigwhile the carrier is in a vice. That should do it.

I tried that, but heres the thing...One the atc200, there is an inner shaft between the two bearings that really wont allow me to get a chisel in there. I can put a screwdriver in there to beat them out, but all the screwdriver does is tear up the bearing, not knock it out. But I will try to somehow get the chisel back in there. Im sure all this rust inside wont help me though.Thanks.

put the carrier on a hot plate and let the carrier heat up. the bearings will almost fall out after the carrier is heated enough.

HAve another person with you, take out the wire that holds the bearings in place, it will take a while but you can do it. And it will litterly fall out. Thats what keeps the pressure so they stay in.

put the carrier in the oven for a little while around 300 degrees. while thats heating up, put your new bearings in the freezer. ive used this technique and it works awesome. good luck!

I have found this to be a great way to get old bearings out. Get a die grinder (attachment) for an electric drill. Grind it down until it is paper thin (doesn't take very long). Use a large screwdriver and a
