Ya they are hard to get off, usually a 3 jaw behind the bearing, not flange helps.
Too many of those things on old farm equipment. Ha,LOL!
A cutoff wheel destroying the outer race will free it and the balls.
Then cutting the inner race most of the way through and hitting it with a chisel
will split it is the way to go, or slicing it with a torch if avail as you said earlier.
Sounds like you have worked on a few Deere combines. Spent 2 hours more than once trying to get them apart. Dremel tool with heavy cut off wheel is your friend.
