Rail (625Wh) Rail Bearing Replacement

[needbb]

I recently purchased a 2022 Rail 9.7, and while upgrading the shock I discovered one of the 6800 bottom shock mount bearings was seized. The bottom shock mount isn't flat which makes it challenging to use a bearing press to extract the bearings. Any ideas on the best way to remove the bearing? A was thinking that the 10mm ID Wheels Mfg Bearing Extractors and hammer it out might be the best bet.

yeah one of the ones that clamps with an expanding bolt type and knock out from the opposite side will do nicely. You have to tighten them more than you think, but i've not had one fail yet.

with a long drift looks as if you might be able to hammer the inner race from the other side of the bike, and through the other side bearing though?
