Wheel Bearing and Wheel Seal; Removal Ralt Series1-5

Has any one on the forum had any experience with removing/servicing the wheel bearings, seals  (F/R), from the magnesium carriers used on the Ralt RT1-5?  I know there is a special extra deep socket with engagement lugs needed and I can source this tool.  Any suggestions on heating the carrier/bearing?  Heat source, temperature required to loosen,  etc.  Could anyone suggest a professional or quality shop that could perform this procedure in the US?  THANKS!!!! for any input and suggestions.  Jerry

Jerry: I had my Ralt RT-1 supervee hubs serviced by John Anderson Racing in Sonoma, CA 707 939 7462.
Lee Chapman racing in Connecticut supplies the bearings and can install them. 203 270 8449

You are half way there if you have the tool to remove the SKF KM6 bearing nuts. PM me your email and I can send you the Ralt service bulletins for bearing removal/ install if you like.
