I hav a no name live center. I think it is not asian, seems better made then that. I see no way to take it apart. The nose cone seems to be one piece with the main body. The arbor is pressed into a ball bearing at the rear with no obvious way to pry it out. It has a small groove just outside the inner race. Not big enough for a snap ring but maybe I could get a bearing splitter in there. But what then? pushing the arbor inward would do nothing since the nose seems to be one piece with the body. And no good way to grab the body and pull the arbor out the back.
Maybe I am mistaken and the nose is supposed to rotate separate from the body. I see no snap rings, no rings to adjust bearing preload, no nothing to remove before trying to separate.
