Anyone have any tips for removing the bearings off the differential? Specifically the races?? I can't seem to get them to budge. I've already removed the cage and rollers.

I'm starting to think the only option left is a cutoff wheel and chisel...

Input appreciated!!!

I do them by cutting a grove across the race with a wheel not all the way and smack it with a chisel they split along the cut. You could also use a bearing splitter and a press

I guess it's the way my diff is made, but there was no way a puller could get under a race..

Ended up just cutting it and using a chisel. Worked like a charm!
