Removing a Differential Carrier Bearing Without Special Tools

The only tools used to remove the bearing were a large pair of channel locks, a harmonic wheel balancer puller kit, an impact gun, and two long bolts from the puller kit. Carrier is from a Dana 60 out of a Ford E350 Extended Cargo Van.

Just chisel the cage,turn unit over,heat the race and let gravity do its job.

I've seen those videos before, I didn't want to take the temper out of the Carrier or take that chance with my torch. Maybe one day I'll try that and see if I can do that without causing permanant discoloration on the Carrier.

This is exactley what I DON'T want to do to my bearing. Don't know where to get a new one. Need a better way.
