Yes, I'm trying to remove the end plate to get access to the rotors. I'm trying to make it a working unit. Sounds like the end plate is pressed in....Thank you, Joe

Removing Rotor Barrel Endplate
I used 2 leg puller with jaws reversed and pulled on the inner race, the bearing outer race fit held and the endplate pulled out from the barrel allowing access to the Vanes intact.
I have found OEM Vanes are Plastic and Rebuilt units have (GME) G9 Glass Melamine Epoxy Vanes. The Woven Glass vanes do not "Shatter" like the plastic one and are very difficult to remove necessitating endplate removal as if doing a usable rebuild. I think I used a smaller diameter support that would fit the Vanes intact for one pump and the other the plastic were destroyed.
