Stuck Rear Bearing

[jim ivey]

Everybody is beating on this thing.I suggest go to the handy dandy Radio 
Shack and get some electronic component freeze spray.Use your stove to heat 
the crank and bearing to hot-to touch temperature,spray only the crank with 
the spray to cool and contract the crank and then the bearing should easily 
tap off the crank.I have done this on ornery to remove bearings.
