Rear axle bearings, '89 240 200

Why did you cut the lock ring and inner race instead of just pressing them off?

I believe the combined resistance of both is more than the average press can overcome.

Bottom line is I don't have a replacement lock ring, so the existing one has to do it.

Replacement locking rings (were) are available. Volvo # 383168. May be listed as a "spacer", but believe me, it locks. I haven't done one since 140 days (same as 240), but drilling and splitting is the only way to go, IMO.
