Was helping Julian solve an issue he had with his spigot bearing the other day and we came up with a possibly neat idea to assist in removing the afore mentioned bearing, some thing that can take ages if unlucky. Remember that program on telly, Dream Cars when theirs got stuck?
When fitting a new bearing there is likely to be a gap behind the bearing. Turn up a thick washer that is a neat fit and cut a thread in the centre of it. Slide it in prior to the bearing and then fit the bearing in the normal manner. When you come to remove the bearing next time you will have a decent thread to attach a puller to.
Just an idea.
