59 3rd Arm Bearing

[John F.]

Anyone know how to remove the 3rd arm bearing? This is the one with the large ball stud that connects to the 3rd arm support bracket. I've removed the snap ring but it's not coming loose.

I pulled my out recently and the AIM procedure worked just fine although the bearing wasn't being cooperative.
