Searched all over the internet for some pictures or a how to for taking apart a snout and replacing bearings. Blower is a 2.0 KB with a snout upgrade.. (confirmed the blower with KB) The only thing I found was an old thread on a Dodge forum. According to that, the shaft should come out the back end. Tapped on it with a driver and hammer, no luck. So I put it in the press. Put some pressure on it and the pulley end moved but the other end did not. I stopped so I don't destroy it.
So I'm looking for some advice on how to proceed. Anyone have experience replacing the bearings?

Wished I had pictures lol.. Jon Bond is 40 miles from my house, I gave up and sent it over to him. He was not forthcoming with info over the phone so I didn't press.

Well I am about to replace the seals on mine so I'll post up some pictures when I figure it out.

I have never been able to get much if any information out of him. Either himself of whoever responds to email also seem to have problems with simple questions which is frustrating.

Roger that, if you figure it out, let me know.. 150 bucks to swap out the bearings and a new seal. Would have cost me more if I would have ****ed it up I suppose. I just don't see any other way for it to come apart.
