I use a press and that bearing clamp tool and press them right off with the backing plate like they did in the dealerahips when they were being worked on. Only problem is they dont usually press right out. Its scary sometimes when there is a full 20 ton pushing it and nothing happens till explosion of outer bearing race, so i add a little heat and some penetrant and they mostly come right off. If they dont press right out with little heat i will then cut the bearing and retainer collar and then it just falls apart. I try to save some collars incase i need one because i snagged a good used bearing that the collar wouldnt budge on. I love samurais. The rear end i run is a tracker/sidekick center with the samurai axle tubes welded on with the 5.13 gear ratio, welded and all you need to do is put the samurai axle couplers inside the pig and yours ready for business. I used to just get two tracker fronts to do both on samurai, but i found that the rear get trashed fast so i did a hybrid rear end and it rarely fails anymore. I also run the larger tracker/sidekick yokes and flanges so i have the bigger bolts and they dont come loose of shear off.
I weld a pipe to the retainer and bearing and use a puller to get them off 😁
good to know the correct procedure Mi , thankyou FROSTY

The SJ410 bearing retainer is one of the best mods you can do to a Sami!
Thanks for the video, although i did groan quite loudly when I saw that I needed to cut the stupid things off.
Nothing compared to the screams from putting in new backwards and having to cut the new off.
Great info for the diy guys that are trying to get it done
I really love the SJ 410 plates work.
Great video! I am just about to do this..
Cheers from Denmark🇩🇰
Hello Denmark. Suzuki people all over the world.
Definitely need to save those balls!
Im getting ready to do this and have my new 410 plates and Koyo bearings for it.
Fighting the tyrants with Samurai ball bearing sounds more difficult than changing the bearings
Wait til you see what maxtact loaned me to do tomorrows video as a sponsorship.
I always save the balls in case the tyrants
Hello, is there a parts list with part number anywhere? So i can buy it at my local dealer? (i live in denmark) For the SJ410.
I will be posting it on the website asap under samuria axles.
Can you offer a link for the SJ410 retainer flanges?
I usually sell them with chromo axles and bearings. I will post them as a product by themselves asap.
Looks the same as a ford 9"....
YOU ALSO NEED A SHAVE AND A HAIR CUT
Didn’t see that on my Suzuki ownership requirement form.
