Have had extremely good luck using a stick machine and welding inside the race w/7018. Apparently when the weld cools, the race shrinks, most of the time to the point of falling out under it's own wieght. Used this trick on many a logging truck hub, in fact I got to the point where I didn't even bother with the hammer and drift. Ya' have to be careful not to weld the race to the hub though!!!
