Hmm, I may try that. The bearings I bought for the 190D at Car Quest came with
races. I played with them a little and couldn't get 'em out.. I polished them
so they were really smooth just in case. Guess that wasn't enough.

If you can get them out, they're replaceable. An old farmer's
trick is to arc-weld a bead across the face of the race. When
it cools it contracts, reducing the diameter of the race slightly.
Repeat as necessary. Only if you can't pound them out, of course.
