How do you take broken bearing's out? It really kills me when I'm trying to get a philip's head in between the outside of a bearing and the wheel for a half an hour. It's really annoying. Anyone know any better ways?

Get new wheels and bearings.

Try some needle nose pliers if the part of the bearing that's stick in the wheel is smooth. Also, try to pry the fried bearing out with the axle of your truck. See if you can get a flat head screwdriver underneath the busted bearing at the wheel core and see if you can get some leverage and get that thing outta there.
Good luck

I've luck with using the axle. Although it might strip the threads....becareful. Or, try freesing the certain wheel to see if anything works...

I think the truck axel is the handiest way to remove bearings, you don't need to do it too fast jsut slowly pivot it out.
