Model 5 questions

[thun_derbolt1000t]

Hello everyone, just a quick question. The bearings on my model 5 are pretty bad. I was wondering if anyone knows how to oil/replace the bearings.
Thank you!

the bearing shouldnt be close to 45. just get some pgn, or timken, fully sealed (2rs bearings)

use a bearing puller!!!, dont bash on anything, including the rotor.

Would I have to pull the shaft out?
