just bought a replacement motor from a 91 talon 70k mile super clean....it was an automatic and i need to remove the pilot bearing because my car is a 5 spd awd...and the pilot bearing in it is stuck...i cannot get this thing to budge at all, ive soaked it with liquid wrench, and pb blaster, still wont move...any ideas or special tools to get this thing off ?? thanks for the advice in advance....
 
Fill the center hole and the space behind it with axle grease. Find a ¼"-drive socket that just barely fits in the center, put it on an extension backward, and drive it into the grease with a hammer. Magical.
 
thanks for the tip, i actually used a 19mm socket and slid it inside the bearing to get it out, what a pain it was to remove it...
