Today I removed the bearing from the housing and degreased and cleaned the parts (excluding the bearing).
The bearing feels very good with no apparent slop or play, and smooth rotation without grating or excessive free running. How do I clean an oily, tacky bearing without getting degreaser into the ball race?
As you can see, my cleaning brush will soon have to be retired.
