Default OBX LSD bearings ?'s

Ok I ditched my M2B4 LSD and got a OBX unit since I cant find a ring gear for the OEM unit. I need two bearing to put on it and a vehilcle speed gear from my OEM unit.
HOW DO I GET THE VSS gear off the diff?
How do I safely get the bearings off to possible save some money since they look mint?

Helpful answers would be sweet at this point in time

they are probably pressed on and destroyed when removed

Pictures are the sme as they are on the majectic site they are pressed on and I measured with a feeler gauge I only have a 3.23mm gap. I know of known steel that has a stress laevel at that toleralce even 40/30 chromeoly at my work place. ANY OTHER IDEAS

I'm so JEWISH AT THIS POINT

I work t AISIN USA we have 2 die maint shops and 4 machine shops. I can get it done maybe but we are talking about pwople who dont care really, just job related that they care about. I have access to 4 22ton arbor hydraulic presses but even with the tool steel I dont think it has the stress level to withstand the removal of the VSS ring. Bearing care less ,, know how fast I'm going top of the list

I dont think that OBX will fit in the jdm tranny... You have another USDM tranny you are going to use
