I made the mistake in my first rebuild of thinking that this is the position the bearing needs to be. The old bearing is retained by an awkward circlip- it would be better if it had eyes for easy removal but here you see the bearing is now positioned just below and in contact with the circlip. Rotor removed- note second spacer that was positioned beneath the bearing Pressing down on the spindle whilst supporting the alternator drive-side case on the iron rests I could then press the spindle out of the front section - be ready to catch the rotor as it falls free. Refit the spindle nut flush with the end of the spindle and then support the bottom of the case securely on the rests. The spindle has to be pushed out of the drive-side case using a press.
