Apparatus and method for removing a bearing. More particularly, the apparatus and method are designed to simplify the removal and replacement of all bearing cups and cones in an automotive automatic transmission. The apparatus includes an elongate bearing drive shaft; an adjustably sized mandrel which includes one or more bearing drive shoulders; a mandrel spreader for adjusting the mandrel drive shoulder to a predetermined dimension; and a collar or clamp ring for limiting the mandrel to a maximum outer dimension surrounding an outer surface of the bearing, without substantial slippage, during the removal and insertion steps, in one embodiment.
