    Book sez you can now push the shaft rearward (toward prop end). It will push the seal out with it. My guess is then you can access the ball bearing to knock it out. But not speaking from experience here. Yes, heating the aluminum should make the bearing almost fall out.

    I must say, I’ve never spec’d the bearings. But that’s interesting. I’ve worked on more than a few of those motors back in the day and have little or no experience with that gearcase. They must be OK.
