Don't forget about the set of needle bearings inside the spindle. I had a fun time trying to get one of mine out, LOL!

great....something to look forward to..... i was actually looking at them last night...i guess i'll have to get some sort of small internal bearing puller...
I got one out with a cold chisel coming through from the other side and I think I scored the other ones shell with the dremil tool to split it after the bearings fell out to get it loose.

thanks for the tips-i'll keep them in mind...
