Often will just push out. If not, heat the aluminum around it and it will push out - usually doesn't take much heat.
The below would work well with a little heat.
It can even work when there is no lip as it expands internally
And fast too
I have used it to pull the difficult front wheel bearing out (Right hand side)
I will try to use it to pull out the inner front brake piston when I get around to installing new seals. With heat..

Got the answer by complete fluke last night ! Sitting at the bench with a can or 2 picked up a couple of sockets I hadn't put away . The second one went into the casing hole and caught the slightest of a lip on the bearing !! It worked. Work zone 19mm 3/8 drive. Unbelievable!!! Thanks to all. Ps put in new oil seal and it's too tight on the shaft. Ordered a different make to try. All good fun ! Roy. Ps, socket external diameter, 25.75mm. Internal diameter of bearing, 25.35mm . Pssst goes the next tin .
