Would anyone have a blind bearing puller with 20 & 45mm collet? (please & thanks)

I would appreciate if anyone has or knows someone who has a blind bearing puller with 20 & 45mm collets. I need to pull a couple of bearings from the rear hub of my bike. The hub is removed so I can bring to location of tool.

Please avoid the temptation to try and convince me that this job can be done with homemade tooling and some elbow grease. I really don't feel like costing out a new hub. With the proper tool, this is a 10 minute job. With the wrong one, it's a head ache and potential a much higher cost. (thanks)

You might inquire as to why I am needing a 45mm collet. This is to remove what is left of one of the bearings. Only the outer race is left. I rough measure this as approx. 45mm. The other bearing has an I.D. of 20mm.

The job I need to do is quite similar to the one being done here (with a few minor differences)... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ArFC3xPHhGA

Thanks,
Adam

Dont know where your going to find a 45mm collet, as all the kits Ive seen only go up to about 30mm

I know you said you dont want to hear it, but you need to use a drift on that side where only the outer bearing race remains....

sorry, just checked and mine only goes up to 30mm

I have the same bearing puller kit as you have posted in the video.
I will be in the 404 and steels area tomorrow if you need to use it for the weekend.
P.M me if you want.
That being said you still might have to knock out the broken one from the other side with a punch.

Thanks all. Ya. I get the drift. hahaha. berry punny man. so i think a drift is also known as a punch of sorts. So I hated to be going that route but it seems I would be waiting for delivery of any real tool (45mm collet) to do this work, and went ahead and bought a punch set for $15 from Princess Auto. That and a claw hammer because someone misappropriated mine some time back. Anyhow. About $50 + $30 for the bearings (cheapos from a local shop, while the stealership has the OEMs on order) and an evening later and I got it all sorted now. Of course as I spin the rear tire with chain on, I notice some roughness from the front drive sprocket. Heavens knows I might need to replace the countershaft. UGH!! The wonders of owning an older SS bike.
