Serviced my 1-way bearing and skipped the pricey $100 dealer tool by making my own out of a spare C-clamp... Just heated, bent the prongs and added an offset to clear the exhaust. Thanks to Play-Doh's tech advice, the job was straightforward. Used Aeroshell 14 grease from the local airport as a solid, budget friendly alternative to Kuber Isoflex. Bearings were starting to dry out, so definitely glad I tackled it when I did.

it's satisfying, isn't it? lol. one tip for you probably to document the process. I mean, take pictures or notes of your custom C-clamp tool and the specific measurements.
That way, if you (or a friend!) need to do it again, you have a ready made guide
