I am looking for a way to cut either a round hole into a bearing and differential carrier as a method of repairing it. The problem that I am having is finding a way to cut into the bearing as it is hardened steel. My idea is that I would install a bearing onto the diff. carrier and then take an edm and burn a hole into the bearing and carrier at the same time. Once the hole has been burned into the carrier and bearing I would then take a roll pin and drive it into the carrier to hold the bearing in place. My main concern in doing this is that I do not alter the temper of the bearing and I do believe that an edm would do this. Anyone with any ideas please let me know.
