Some people would argue about leaving the races in.

I removed & repaced the races the last time I changed the bearings. Only because it's so easy & I have the proper tools.

I used a metal punch to get them started then used a brass drift to get them out the rest of the way. You must use brass so you don't mess up the hub.
Then use a seal driver to set the new seal.

I got a nice heavy brass drift from Harbor Freight but I can't find it on line.
