Yeah, the ring bearing is a press fit into both the can and the faceplate. It takes a hammer to get the motor apart once it is together. You have a bearing press? Also, the rear of the can is just pressed onto the backside fan plate in some cases, make sure to check that and seep some locktight in.

I use a drill press with a 4 or 5 mm rod. Just prop it up in a vise the way I need it or use blocks.

I can put quite alot of pressure on one this way.
