Guys, how the hell look like the puller? I mean i can not find anyone here to do the job. Today talking to one guy who also works on bikes, he said he does not have puller but he will get the bearings out, no problem. But he also told me that i will definitely need new bearings. He said that put back the old ones is just bad idea.

I am in dead point for three days now......

Yes if you gotta take out the old ones... It only makes sense to put new ones back in.
