I can't get the Pilot bearing to come out why?

Pack it up with wheel bearing and select a tight fit driver and pound it out-

MEANING---DRIVE (HARD AND FAST) THE TIGHT FITTING DRIVER INTO THE HOLE

IF YOU HAVE IT 100% PACKED WITH GREASE---THE GREASE MUST GET OUT SOMEHOW. SO IT PUSHES THE PILOT OUT

THE MEDIC

Old School-Doc

ROGER THAT

I'VE EXPLAINED IT YOUR WAY TO OTHERS. REALIZING THEY WERE ON THE SAME TRAIN, JUST IN A DIFFERENT BOX CAR

THEY SOMETIMES DON'T GRASP THE "DISPLACEMENT THING" UNTIL YOU SORTA SHOW 'EM

DOIN' GOOD RAZ?

THE MEDIC

OK

SEE IF THIS HELPS!

KEEP US POSTED ON PROGRESS!

WHAT THE TIGHT DRIVER MEANS IS---WHATEVER FITS THE "WHATEVER SIZE" INSIDE HOLE IN THE PILOT AND IS TIGHT. BUT IT WILL STILL SLIDE IN THE HOLE

SOME EXAMPLES BELOW

--OF COURSE THESE ARE DIFFERENT SIZES---WE DON'T KNOW THE HOLE SIZE YOU HAVE

A FOOT LONG PIECE OF BROOM HANDLE

A 1/2 DRIVE RATCHET EXTENSION

A 3/8 DRIVE RATCHET EXTENSION

ANY SORTA SOLID ROD

IF NOTHING ELSE---FIND THE PERFECT SIZE DEEP SOCKET. PACK THE SOCKET FULL AND TIGHT WITH TIN FOIL WITH A HAMMER AND PUNCH. NOW IT'S THE PERFECT SIZED "SOLID ROD". DRIVER!

IF THE INSIDE IS SLIGHTLY CHEWED UP---DRIVE THE DRIVER IN IT A FEW TIMES TO SORTA STRAIGHTEN IT BACK OUT

. THEN DO THE GREASE THING, AS IN THE VIDEO!

DID YOU SEE THE VIDEO?

JOE

LET'S STAY ON THIS POST!

YOU NEED TO ANSWER OUR QUESTIONS. EXPLAIN WHAT'S GOING ON. SEND US A PIC OR TWO!

THE CHISEL THING REALLY DOES NOT SOUND THAT GOOD!

HOW DAMAGED IS THIS PILOT?

A ---GOOD PIC---- WOULD POSSIBLE GIVE US MORE TO GO ON, SO WE CAN OFFER ALTERNATIVES

MANY TIMES I WILL RUSH OUT INTO MY GARAGE AND MAKE A QUICK FIELD EXPEDIENT PIC TO SHOW SOMEONE A METHOD IN DOING SOMETHING. AND HAVE IT POSTED ON HERE IN 15-30 MINUTES

I'LL THROW YOU AN EXAMPLE OR TWO OF MY QUICK PICS (NOT FOR YOUR FIX)

NEED PICS OF YOURS IF POSSIBLE

THE MEDIC

THIS WORK?

LAST PIC---SPRAY SOME OF THIS ON THE RACE TO SHRINK IT--PRIOR TO EXTRACTION?

THE MEDIC

AUTO PARTS STORE. THIS HAPPENS TO BE A PIC AT ADVANCE AUTO

TRY TO "SNATCH IT OUT" FIRST, BEFORE YOU SPEND ANY $$$

YOU CAN ALSO USE "CANNED AIR" LIKE YOU DUST OFF YOUR COMPUTER WITH. JUST TURN THE CAN UPSIDE DOWN AND SQUIRT!

I'D WEAR GLOVES AND SAFETY GLASSES. THIS IS "INSTANT FROSTBITE" IF YOU START SQUIRTING YOURSELF BY ACCIDENT!

DOES IT LOOK LIKE MY IMPROVISED PULLER WILL WORK?

THE MEDIC

IN MY PIC

THE "RING" REPRESENTS THE RACE PART OF YOUR BEARING (THAT YOU WANT OUT)

FOR MY "VERSION" TO WORK---YOU MUST SELECT 2 BOLTS THAT THEIR HEADS WILL "BUTT" AND AT THE SAME TIME. HOLD BEHIND THE RACE SNUGLY

YOU CAN USE WHATEVER YOU HAVE TO MAKE SOMETHING SIMILAR TO WHAT I HAVE "WHIPPED TOGETHER"

A QUICK. SNATCH. JERK! ON THE CHAIN SHOULD PULL THE RACE OUT OF THE FLYWHEEL

MY WIFE PRETENDS TO BE THE FLYWHEEL (HOLDING THE RING [THE RACE]

I YANK ON THE BIG SOCKET SOCKET FORWARD

WHEN I "RUN OUT OF CHAIN" THE RACE GETS PULLED OUT!

DO YOU UNDERSTAND NOW?
