i used a 4 oz ball peen hammer
i think the quality of the punch has something to do with it
they do go back in easier than they come out
dont they...

then you pull the shaft, put it back in, tap the balls back in - and your done
That can be eaisier said than done. I pounded on my ball bearing for 20 minutes with a 4 pound sledge and punch before it even budged. I don't know how ball bearings can get that tight, but they can get wedged in there pretty good.
You definitely don't just tap them out. You gotta beat the crap out of them.
