 +===== Bearing Lockring ​ =====
 +==== Removal ====
 +
 +**Caution**:​ Use eye protection as the lockring may pop out on you. \\ 
 +**There is no reason to replace this ring unless it's damaged or rusted to the point it will hinder proper bearing race installation**. \\
 +The races butt up against this ring on both sides and that determines distance apart from each other thus how far the inner bearing race sticks out the end. \\
 +So the races have to be installed correctly. \\
 +
 +The ring can be used for both internal and external applications. However, the tool for these rings only works on external applications. \\
 +It pushes each end outward to expand the ring to remove it from shafts and the like. \\
 +There are no known pliers to compress the ring due to it having no holes or slots for pliers. \\
 +So it will need to be pried out with screwdrivers in a circle pattern to get the ring out of the groove in the pivot. \\
 +Once the ring is completely out of the groove, you can push it out of the pivot with a socket sized smaller than the pivot and near the same size as the ring. \\
 +Or it may just pop out on it's own. ((photos by Hippysmack)) \\

 +==== Installation ====
 +
 +The ring needs to be installed with a tapered sleeve so you can set it in one side and knock it into the bore while the sleeve taper narrows the ID of the ring. \\
 +But without having that tool, a socket was bolted up into the bearing bore sitting on top of the open end of the ring to keep it from popping out. \\
 +Then the other side of the ring was carefully knocked into the bore with a wooden dowel and a hammer. \\
 +Once the ring was fully in the bore, the socket was used to push the ring down so it snapped into the groove. ((photos by Hippysmack)) \\
