ok.. I'm gonna ask a dumb question.. What's the seal? Is that the piece that slid into the bearings on the backside? Thanks.

Another thing... This shaft is not smooth at all... It has some rough spots under it and some grooves where the piece was that wouldn't come off...

seal surface is behind teh race, thats really the only surface you need smooth. If you have an anvil, you can prop the axle up on it so that it resr in the stuck race, then take a hammer and strike the top of teh race, it will usually crack the race, allowing it to come off.
