Sorry, I didn't pay attention to the inset pic. of the seperator. Maybe make one?
When removing big bearings on the old 2 cyl. John Deeres, I have used an old "Arkansas Toothpick" its just a big ole hunting knife. I would use a hammer and drive it behind the bearing while moving it around the bearing.
That thing was one of the most used tools in my toolbox. lol.
