Tools required : 5/16-18 capscrew 2 1/2 inches long  or so, a nut for said
cap screw,  a smallish flathead screw driver, and an allen key for the cap
screw.
(The cap screw may have been a 3/8-16, but I dont think the nut would fit
through the inner race.)

Thread the nut onto the capscrew about half an inch.  Stick the end with
the nut into the hole, and stick the flathead screwdriver into the hole to
hold the nut from both turning and from poping off the edge of the inner
race.  Tighten the cap screw while keeping tension on the screw driver.
Reposition every once in a while to pull the bearing out straight.

It was very late, and I had to finish !! Took over an hour to figure out
how the he!! I was going to get the thing out,  but when I did, it took
about 20 minutes.

Oh yeah, and remember to swear a lot, that always helps.

Take care,
Marc Robitaille
