I'm pretty sure i know the answer to this already but I'll ask and maybe save myself some work. I'm powdercoating my swing arm i'm reckon I'm going to have to get the bearings pressed out to stop the oven cooking the grease and it running over my finish before its baked off. Not to mention the blasting process and the cleaning fucking the bearings...
Think I just answered my own question but hey maybe I'm wrong - its happened before.
