Changing stock motor bearings
Just ordered some Boca 5x16x5 ceramic hybrid bearings for this motor. The reason for wanting to change them is that after the last run I noticed what looked to be a bit of rust on the shaft around the front bearing area. I figure this rust might be coming from the front bearing. I'd rather deal with this now before the bearings seize up entirely.
I was just wondering what is the best way to disassemble the motor and pop these out without damaging anything. This will be my first bearing replacement.
