Is there some trick to removing a balance shaft bearing? Chiltons mentions a machine shop doing it. Why is that? If I can't get it out, does anyone have an extra balance shaft I can throw in to plug the hole?

I used a large socket, just the size of the bearing (Can't remember exactly what size unfortunately) on an extension and tapped it out gentle like. Well, as gentle as you can be with that SOB anyway.
