How do I go about taking apart the motor I am pretty sure I need to replace the bearings on a motor and have no idea how to get to them.

PLEASE HELP!!

I made a handle out of steel and twisted out with the screws on the frt endbell

What did you hold the motor with?

[Alexgar]

An old piece of rubber and a vice

Awesome I will give it a try tomorrow.
What did you take it apart for?
Did you replace the bearing if so which kind did you use??

Alex worked like a charm bolted the motor to a motor mount piece I have and twisted and off came the front piece.

I don't know that it was the bearings that are the issue on the motor.
The piece the shaft is connected to the armature?
Has dents/divots in it and I think it possibly rubs against the magnets which is causing a strange noise.
Does this mean it is bad or worn out I am pretty sure the inside should be smooth and completely circular?
