Try using a large brass drift, hit it north, south, east then west then repeat, get even pressure all round the cup  :daumenhoch:

Yarp!!

But dont use a screwdriver.............use an extension bar off a socket set with the 1/4" rounded square end at the cups.

Bigger the hammer the easier it will be!!

And when you reinstall some cups..................grease them and the BB.   It will make life easier when you have to remove/install them.  :daumenhoch:

have managed tp smash one of the bearings to pieces so can now get somthing brutal in there as a 19mm hole is not much to work with esp when the center tube is fitted

these cups have been in best part of 10 years as its an old s&m holmes just being a bitch.
