Exactly - I was wondering the same thing - no room for extraction, believe me.
Unlike the wheel bearing races with the slots...

That's why I thought there was a special tool or trick.

I would only do the welding myself, if I had the tools and experience. The wrong guy can do more damage than good.

Glad the original races can be reused, just in case nobody comes up with a simple safe solution.

Thanks for your help though.
