    Nice idea! i have an old gear stick with the threaded end bent slightly, just feed it down and hammer the bearing out.

    I'm still "moving" Mini parts. About one or two more loads to go and the whole Mini collection will have been moved....All late 60's rust.

      @@LoneStarMini They have spent many years in a family basement. A couple years back I knew that a time would come when I would need to move them to storage.
      They are heavy.
      Up stairs...down stairs...down the driveway heavy.
      So two years ago I began. I had to sort and organize before moving anything.
      Over this past winter I was down to the last few loads....the stuff that was scattered or one of a kind.
      Then life took over....and the need to move things was upon us....only us is me.
      Meanwhile for three or more years I was looking for pallet racking. I got the first few sections about two years ago and then I could not find 12' beams. A year and a half ago I found three....and then months later the 4th.
      I built the pallet racking in storage and soon I had a place for the Mini parts.
      I then started a built a small loft and most of the parts are on the rack except all the engine blocks and heads and a few other heavy things.
      The parts are safe now and more organized than they have been.
      Now...If I only had a shell that was worth assembling.
      It is 200 miles between where the parts were and where the new home is.
