Well got my press yesterday and managed to remove the uj's easily enough.

But still having issues with the rear wheel bearing.

Can someone confirm the following before I head to the loft for the bible

Bearing is pushed out from the back ? (seems to be 2 cutouts where I could fashion a piece of metal to sit in and push on these)

No circlip at front holding it in ?

Will maybe try oven ready method and then try and push out again with gas torch as extra heat source if needed yikes

Well after burning the crap of whilst heating, I found a circlip, bugger to get off but eventually off and bent frown

Bearing out now, just waiting for the new one now, but anyone know where the circlip comes from if I fail to hammer it straight yikes ?
