I am replacing the "bearing flanges" which are in reality just bushings. However, I admit, I have no idea how to proceed...
I recently replaced the axle seals in the transmission of my 1973 Case and in the process discovered the axels themselves were VERY worn at the position where they meet the inner bushings, as well as both inner bushings (bearing(s)/flange('es) being worn also. So I bought used replacement axels, and ordered new bushings (not happy with the unannounced 2 week delay on these parts - I bet Brain would have done better), however, I cannot turn back.
Now the the transmission is completely removed and disassembled, I have no idea how to remove the inner bushings. Do I heat them, or is there a special tool or method?, I tried pounding them out with a steel bar but they do not budge.
Do I need to take this to some specially shop?
