get a punch and bang it on the spacer inside dislodging it and then pass the punch "THROU" the front bearing and drive
the opposite side cup out from inside to out   hit it in a few different positions hardish dont be shy   :daumenhoch:

..................Is the right answer   :daumenhoch:   Try hitting the cup in a 12 o'clock, 6 o'clock, 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock pattern,  It'll find it's way out no worries.  Be sure to hit the cup and not the bearing and you'll do no harm.  :)
