Bearing spacer stuck inside the wheel

[Ellie]

lol hi.

it's me again

I put bearings into my wheels and then realized the bearing spacer shifted and now its sideways and blocks the middle part so I can't get the bearing out. what do.

 

[Bobby R]

Try and move the bearing out just a little bit and try shaking the wheel till the spacer is right side up.

 

[Ellie]

I can't move the bearing out at all since theres no space for me to remove it :\

 

[Hunter Treviranus]

put it one a vice(or something else that will hold up the wheel but not block the bearings) then put an axle as far as it goes til it touches the spacer than wack the axle with a hammer

 

[Ellie]

holy fuck I put a bearing spacer into my other wheel correctly and now it wont fucking move?

 

[Scott Freibaum]

did you put it in with a hammer?

 

[Ellie]

yeah

 

[Robert]

stick a screw driver inside the bearing and hit the end of the screw driver with a handle until the bearing and spacer pop out'

and never put bearing in with a hammer it will break them do this:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHLqQIyp2b0

if its sideways and blocking the hole just put an old axle in and hit the other bearing out...

after you get it out theres a way you can put bearings in and prevent the problem from ever happening again.

get a 5/16 bolt and the proper locknut multiple washers and wrenches. then in order you slide on a washer, bearing, wheel, spacer, then bearing, washer. if there is a lot of extra room use spacers to take up space. put your locknut on the end. then you kind of guide the bearings in straight and once they're straight you tighten down the bolt. then it applys pressure to push in the bearings and at the same time keeps your spacer in the correct position.

That picture is awesome haha.

If you can stick an axle in the wheel, just hit the sideways bearing spacer out. Never use a hammer to install bearings, it never works out well.

I think you maybe need to break the bearing...

Put in the fridge over night and then the bearing fall out of the wheel.
