Thanks Steve , I just went out and removed them. I see that there is a spacer for the inner race and I needed to knock that in prior to driving out the bearing from one side. Once done it was easy to knock out the other bearing. Don't know why they didn't just counterbore the pulley from both sides and press in the bearings. OH well , thanks again. |

Steve -- IIRC there is an internal snap-ring in a groove in the AC idler pulley between the two bearings. With a punch at an angle, drive 1 bearing out by the inner race from other side (then you can access the snap-ring and get the 2nd bearing out). |

I am replacing the bearing in the AC tensioner pulley and I have yet to press it out. When I look at the bearing it looks like an SKF #6002/C3 but if I look closer it appears that there are 2 bearings pressed in place. I am also having difficulty in pressing out these bearing using a vice so I guess I need to take it to a press. Has anyone done this before and if so what did you run into. |
