So I, like everyone else, have just found out what a !@#$* it is to try and get the races out of the hubs. Called around, and since its sunday, everyone is closed. Finally called pep boys out of desperation, the tech there said:

"We don't pull races"

I said, "Huh?"

He said that they never do it, they just put the bearings in on the old races. I said I had new races w/ the bearings, he said again, we never use them.

Uh. I'm not so keen on that idea, as these 320 hubs were used parts. The races look fine, but...

I'm off to go get a puller, but putting them back in seems like something I'm going to have to find someone w/ a press to do for me.
