Thank you, red. That was exactly my problem. The parts are machined to such tight tolerances that it gets cocked incredibly easily.

Thank you. Looks like it must be just rust/corrosion holding the rear plate in. Don't see any fasteners. Now to get it apart without damaging something...

I'm rebuilding a used IR 231 ha2 I got recently. Since it's rather worn, I want to completely rebuild it. I'm having trouble removing the motor to replace the rear bearing. The rear plate that houses this bearing won't come out. Does anyone have any ideas how I can get it out?

Wow, nice find! Really makes you wonder why it was in there.
