[Fot] Southwick Conversion - keeping the bearing in place?

[DAVE HOGYE]

Hi Chris,
I have pressed the retainers on and have removed them with a cut-off disc.  Of course I don't cut through the retainer, but close enough to finish with a chisel.  I found that the retainers are available in two widths. The wide one would have more retaining tension.  But, as someone suggested, the axle diameter dimension may be in question too. 
Best, Dave H.
