Bearing died on JD mule drive pulley. Pulley
is 2 piece stemped metal with bearing sandwiched inbetween, halves
riveted together.. Me thinks might be able to machine off
enough of flange on one side to press out old;/ press in
new. Bet new bearing is equal in price to new pulley/w
bearing ($15.50) but anyone have experience with these? ED

Easier to knock rivets out, separate halves, re-rivet; replace bearing that
way.

At least, that has been successful for me on small stuff.

I chucked it up on the lathe and faced
the boss on one end, just a couple of passes
then took it over to the welding bench and ran
a bead around the race..a couple of taps
and out it fell.. Looks like some JB weld
and a new bearing and it will be back in
service. 1/5 the price of new..hope
it runs true. ED
