Help with 6 gear tranny

Hi all

I'm rebuilding an old 6 gear and want to put bearings throughout. Is there a top tip for removing the pressed on gears so I can replace the bushing behind the spur gear with a bearing. I want to do it without damaging anything

Thanks

remove the teflon bushing out of the dif. pinion. suport the back side of the dif. pinion . Use the correct size punch to gently tap the dif. tube out of the pinion. The pinion to dif. tube is a tapered joint and shouldnt take much to seperate. You can now change out the bushing. The second option would be to loacate a six gear with bearings either on rc10talk or ebay.
