i want then centric on the axle, but i must switch the bearings then and i don't know how to do this:rolleyes:

they are a press fit, the only way your going to get them out, is by warming the one-way axle a little and then gently tapping out the bearing.

nope, as it sounds like it is bonded in, unless you can press the bearing out.

Why do you need to run a TA05 pulley on the front? If it's to get rid of the overdrive, your best bet is to put what was the front diff (with the black pulley) in the back, and re-gear it slightly on the spur and pinion, probably up 1 or 2 teeth. You're better not mucking around with the 1 way if the bearings are pressed or bonded in, you'll likely break them trying to get them out. :o

As far as I know the front and rear diffs in the 501 kit are identical apart from the pulley. I might be wrong though. ;)
