anyone have a good trick for getting a stubborn inner bearing race out of a drum? [The outer one was no problem] |

Did you try heating up the drum a little with a torch and knocking it out with a punch from the other side? |

I did try heating up the drum; the problem is that there is almost no lip to place the punch on. I'm going to try grinding the drum away a little with a dremel so i have a better surface to hit. |

Try dressing up your drift punch on the grinder and then try to drive out the race. Good luck. |

if you clean all the grease out you may find 2 indents in the casting that you can get a long punch on, be sure to work both sides equally to prevent binding.
It is possible to grind a notch in the race and then hit it with a chisel to crack it, then it falls out. |

thanks for the ideas, I finally got it out by grinding away the drum a little with a dremel. This gave me a nice solid edge to put a punch on. |
