Just wondering how stupid it would be not to replace the bearing when I replace most everything around it? It's just another $100+ dollars but damn that adds up fast. It sounded okay before, just wanted some thoughts. Thank you in advance.

One pic tells the anatomy.
Lever the race out with two fine screwdrivers.
Don't damage the tin cover.
Lever the tin cover off with safety razors or putty knives.
Don't damage the tin cover
Clean and inspect thoroughly.
Retain balls (!) with new grease against outer race, install tin, use vise to re-install inner
race.
As they say in the mid-west...Walla !
