gm, how do you successfully get the Right hand cup off, which is stuck on ?
Run a kettleful of boiling water over the shell and fixed cup - that expands the cup and softens the Loctite. Then support the flange of the cup in the jaws of a vice or similar and give the axle end a brisk tap with a rubber mallet or a hammer cushioned with a block of wood. It's a two minute job, and most of that is boiling the kettle.
