Hi Mike,
We park in the driveway and drive on the parkway because people in this day and time park or drive just about anywhere they want. Anyway, to your bearing question, There are two types of bearings in GM products that I have come across. One is pressed on the axle and comes out with the axle. The other that you have is pressed into the housing. There is very little lip on the inside, but enough to use a slide handle puller with a hook attachment to screw on the end. If you hold the tool and your mouth right, work from side to side and it should slowly come out. One time I had a hard time so I took my roto-zip with a small wheel and cut an X into the race (after all the rollers came out using the puller) and took a punch to knock away the pieces. This took the tension off the outside of the race and it finally came out. Sometimes you can go all the way through with a long bar from the opposite side and knock it out. It takes different techniques for different jobs of the same kind. Hope this helps. Good luck.
