Herb, my wheel bearings were a b****d to get out, I had to weld a nut in the middle and tap it out. I posted this and I wondered what people did if they couldn't weld, someone answered that they used a larde raw bolt as a drift, brill! just stick it in tighten it up and whack it out.
My bike has a notch in the spacer to help tap the bearing out, waste of time, just damaged the spacer. Also a friend on mine suggested heating the wheel with a heat gun not an open flame(which we all know about) but also putting the bearings in the freezer. Almost dropped into place.
