Hi, i'm trying to replace the front wheel bearing on my first bike, a 2000 txt 250. The problem is there is a spacer running through the hub between the bearings.it is also a smaller inside diameter than the bearing so you can't even tap a lip. This prevents you from tapping the inside/backside of the bearing with a punch. Is there a way of getting the out. I'm stuck! Cheers

I had the same problem with my rear I found a socket that fit perfect inside the bearing race(and contracted the spacer). Heat the hub on the opposite side put the socket in and give it a wack with a hammer and it will come right out.

Or buy yourself a bearing puller

Cheers for the reply. Was unsure if you could tap through and didnt want to damage anything but I gave it a try like you said and hey presto, came straight out! Happy days, cheers... And had ordered an internal bearing puller but that's now cancelled but cheers anyway!
