I understand you need to 'tap' the axle to get the bearings out. Do you also have to 'tap' the spacer out? Once the first is out, I guess you have to 'tap' it back the other way to get the other side out?

That's the gist of it. Use a rubber mallet. Tap one side and it pushes both the cap/spacer and the bearings out the other side. Simples!
