Is this a joke or am I missing something ......your buddy gave you his new shocks to sort out his bearing size problem.. and you have no idea what a spherical bearing is or how they are located in shock eyelets or how to remove the spacer inserts then you tried to push one out with no tools ...as it did not work...,obviously ........you then gave it back to him....who obviously does have an idea and some tools and he pressed out one of the bearings using the home mechanics normal method of doing that type of work. Sorry but I just find that to be incomprehensible.
