We are going to pull a motorcycle wheel bearing and seal for reuse. To pull the motorcycle wheel bearing we will use a blind bearing puller.

Using a blind bearing puller will enable us to reuse the wheel bearing and the seal.

What we are going to do today, is use a blind bearing puller. So what I've done, I've cleaned this out, with a solvent. Without spinning the bearing, it's bone dry

And what I want to do is just show This is the way the seal stacks. This whole assembly went in on this side here.

And goes in and becomes the spacer, bearings assembly for the rear wheel. I want to show what a blind bearing puller is.

As you can see here, it's got a point This point goes in to spread these jaws. These jaws go inside the bearing and as you tighten it up, you can see that, this fits in there.

What it does, it grabs the inside of the bearing. And you have a slide hammer that you'll attach to here. And of course the slide hammer, has inertia that will be pulling up

And it will pull the bearing out. And that is how I pulled the bearing and the seal all at one time.

Over here I've got a practice that I use. I put these in reverse order. In other words, this came out in this direction, inside the wheel, the bearing went next, of course with the open end towards the inside, to protect it, has a sealed outside case.

Then of course the seal, the seal went in with the exterior being the solid. Keep dust and dirt out.

I like to stack those just in that manner, So I don't have to figure out how it went. I know exactly.

What I'll do here, stick our blind hole bearing puller. In here I pushed it all the way through It's come all the way through the bearing and is on this side.

Once I get that tight I'll take the slide hammer. Tighten it down Now I'm just going to.

The seals already come out. And there we have the bearing. You can see the inside of the hub. There is nothing but the raw aluminium.

So, we can take this apart. We can clean it. We can lubricate the bearings. Put it back together.

And we'll have lubricated bearings. And we'll use the same seals and everything reinstalled

Because we used the right tool. We haven't hammered, we haven't caused damage to any of the parts. We can reuse these, because there is nothing wrong with them.

Had the bearings been rusted or badly pitted. Or ground down with dirt and mud we would have to replace them. Being that they were turning and turning easily We are just going to clean them and re-lubricate.

So I am going to put this in our solvent. I am going to take this seal. And I am going to clean it with some penetrating oil.

Now that is ready for re-installation.

None of these are expensive, in fact I bought these most of them came from ebay or maybe harbor freight I can't remember because I've had them for so long.

But, it's really hard to do routine repairs. And do it right without causing damage without the right tools.
