    Need help to change Kirby Sanitrnic VII bearings.

    P.S., the only place you really need a puller is for the rear bearing. And honestly, if you don't have a tool that fits the small bearing to remove it, cut it off as you are installing a new bearing anyways so who cares if you destroy the rear bearing - just be careful not to damage the armature...

    Vintage universal vac I just got.

    I hope all of the wheels are in good shape. There was one of these on ebay awhile back and the pictures in that listing did not show the vac was missing the front wheels. So I hope yours is in good shape and it will look great restored.

    1938 hover 300 shaft pulley

    Yes it is threaded on, so you can spin it off. I have seen this part break before too. hold the fan blade as you twist the belt pulley off. Whack the end of the broken pulley a couple times with a hammer before trying to remove it.

    Kirby G series issues

    take the g5 completely apart too as more is going on then you are describing - so I bet once apart you will see there are some other obvious issues going on. There are only a handful of screws holding everything together. Do not take apart the handle pivot spring, leave it in its carriage as...
