<< I could use some expert advise.  In putting the transmission in my 530 
back togeter I am replacing all of the bearings and races. One race is giving me 
some problems and thought that you guys may have a quick and easy solution.  
On the sliding shaft, there is a race on the end of the shaft that fits into 
the bearing in the transmission drive gear. The race has a beveled shoulder so I 
cannot get a puller to grab onto the race. In a second effort, I heated the 
race and attempted to drive it off the shaft but that didn't work either.  Any 
suggestions ?   Can I weld on the race without messing up the splined shaft??
 
Thanks

Ken,
If it is the bearing that I am thinking of...having done two 50s and a 530, I 
think this is a press off, press on situation.  I had some hardware that I 
could make into a press for the situation.  I doubt pullers would have ever 
worked.  It came off hard all three times.  Good luck, John
