Had to

[OV Renegade]

clean my Slosh30 this am. Casting it out yesterday next to the VB pier it made an awful screeching noise. Successfully got it cleaned and lubed with some Quantum Hot Sauce. Seems to free spin now for a long time. The only thing I had a problem with getting the bearings out with prying them. What's a safe way of getting them out ?

They don't come out or at least on my SHA .... they are made into place ....... real bummer :mad:

[chris storrs]

they come out on the sha,in the endcap they can get a lil stuck, might take some work but really not hard at all..unscrew the screw, remoce the clicker ring and the gold colored sheet that keeps in the bearing and the bearing is under the little silver colored washer, on the handle side just unscrwew the two tiny screws and the keeper pops off, and the bearings can be popped right out

on both the slosh/sha a good trick is to get a paper clip and bend it ot flat

then take one of teh ends and bend it 90 degrees from the rest, about 1/16-1/8 inch of the tip of the paper clip should be perpendicular to the rest

slide that in the bearing hole and itll pop em right out
