Thank you! This got me thinking and I used an old brake rotor as your 2x4 and 2x4s as the spacer. Mine was rusted inside and it took a lot to get out then a few taps. For the back bearing I used the greasy rag trick. I punched pieces of a greasy rag into the center of the rear bearing and it pushed it out. Thanks again! This what youtube is for!
I owe you an apology and thank you! I thought my puller and tools would work better so I spent 3 hours and 2 bandaids later to finally give up. Then I built your puller and 5 minutes later I was done! Thank you!!!!!
You got to remove the blades first. Then remove the shear pin that connects the hydraulic pump to the gear box. Then remove the 4 bolts that typically hold the gear box to the frame.
I think I wedged a screwdriver to pin one side and kept it from spinning and used a second one to work the retaining clip off. Now that you mention it, I recall it being a pain.

How did you get the retaining clip out?

You aint going to replace the other cracked bearing sounds like trouble for the almost rebuild hoghead
