Im not sure how to properly remove the sprocket carrier and full width rear hub bearings. Dont seem to want to push thru fron either side? Havent worked on this type of wheel before?? Thanks for your help.

The sprocket carrier has 2 snap rings on the inside of the bearings with a spacer between.  Remove the stub axle and use a brass drift to knock the bearing out and then flip it over and do the same, snap rings stay in place.  The full width hub, use a long narrow drift and punch the bearings out from one side to the other.  The center space sometimes has a small notch that the drift will fit ina nd catch teh inner race of the bearing. They will not push clear through.  Hope this helps.
