300D turbo manual trans swap problem#1: Pilot Bearing Shatters Inside Crank

Hey Fellas,

I was installing a brand new pilot bearing into the 617 turbo crank when all of a sudden, BAM! A segment of the outer race cracked and popped off. The rest of the race is almost flush with the surface of the crank that the fly wheel bolts. It looks like I was about 3/16" from bottoming the bearing inside the crank. Any ideas on how to get the rest of the bearing out? My day is ruined, but there always my mud toy to work on.

Thanks

Shiran
