thanks for the post, in the other thread I didn't realize you've actually done it. I guess I'm going to try to find place where I can rent one.

so a slide hammer will move #6 away from #s 5 & 19 without completely removing it? On a scale of 1-10, how hard is this process? When I bought the spacers I didn't anticipate the it to be such a PITA, now I'm debating just getting a set of 15mm spacers with the 2nd set of bolts already pressed it. Especially if run the risk of screwing something up and needing a whole new bearing.
