-It is important to orient the bearing in the right direction when pressing the bearing into the Release Plate.

They are oppositely oriented.

+XLForum member 'Bikervation' has created a [[https://youtu.be/7BFSrilNk5Q|utube video]] of replacing this bearing. In it he uses a 17mm & 30mm socket to remove the old bearing and a 22mm socket to install the new bearing. Thease are used as presses, not socket wrenches during the procedure. You will benefit from viewing the actual process.
