After you pull the first bearing assembly off the second one can stay in when you take off the rotor.

i did it!! i got if off!
now i just need to figure out how to put the new one on.

it seems that the grease seal is sliding back (off of the inner bearing) and the rotor doesnt stay on.

does anyone know how to get the rotor to stay on? with the grease seal in place of course.

Click the image to open in full size.

Click the image to open in full size.

you can see the grease seal on the inner bearing on the spindle.
the grease seal is moved behind the inner bearing when i slide the rotor and hub on. i feel like i need the grease seal to be inside the hub.

i can move the grease seal around. I dont know where it is supposed to be.
