Pilot bearing removal question

[bcp]

This style expansion bolt. Hold the body with vise grip while tightening the nut. Then pull it out.

That doesnt tell me its a ball bearing. Best if info is stated up front.

Google "6001z". If you were familiar with bearing at all you wouldn't need to to know it was a ball bearing.

Sucks not to have the tools you need. The wet newspaper idea might work. I had never heard of that one.

The bearing type is critical info ... its # is immaterial. Why should I have to look it up? and then assume it is unique. Good definitive info up front is due diligence. Lacking that, a simple yes or no to a clarifying question will let everybody know.

I don't know that tractor at all, but will ask anyway is the bearing mounted in the flywheel or in the crankshaft?
If the bearing is in the flywheel you can unbolt it then simply drive the bearing out, I only suggest this because your having trouble removing it by normal methods.

Lets see. He said it was a pilot BEARING. And then he said it was a 6001z. That is a very common and recognizable ball bearing number. Looked like good info to me.

BEARING is not definitive - especially as applied to pilots. Answers being given were not as well directed toward a ball bearing as they were toward removal of a plain bearing. Hence the question to overtly clarify ... met with response that appears to have an obnoxious element.

Awe come on guys, it's so simple, maybe you need a refresher course. It's all 6001z bearings these days! :laughing:

Sorry, been away for awhile. Don't want want to stir up bees here. It is a ball bearing found on F/NH 1520 series compacts (including my 1715). I'll send pictures next time I get up to my place (about a week). I think Ill try the wet paper next and if not I'll buy the cheap HF hammer set and see if I can baby it out with those hook attachments. Thanks for all the ideas!
