Problems with the control sheave, bearing and clip come up here on a fairly regular basis.
Jacob Anderson just posted a video that I think covers this topic very well.

Not sure I like his method of banging with a hammer on the bearing etc., but it does show a way to get it done.

Yes, it shocked me too when he hit the button with the hammer

, (kids, don't do this at home).
On the other hand, I thought using the hose clamps for support when removing the old bearing and using the socket to swedge around the new bearing from all sides at once was very clever.
