I recently bought the replacement bearing to tackle this DIY. Thanks for the pics. I'm sure they will be helpful when I get mine apart.
Any additional tips you can share?

Classic! Can't say I've ever tried that stuff. Despite Simpsoap's claims.
Opening the sealed case cleanly is key - as the joint is either heat sealed or glued. A Dremel is too brutal for this part. I use a small Olfa knife (the kind of blade that you snap off to expose a new edge) to very carefully trace around the joint. Again & again until a thin-bladed screwdriver can be used to pry the halves apart. It takes some finesse.
After running the numbers I determined that six clamps, strategically placed around the perimeter of the joint gave optimal pressure levels to the very narrow band of epoxy I spread around the case halves. A seventh clamp would have caused the glue joint to fail in a spectacular fashion. Cool?

The girl reads it, looks up and says: "You know, we have a special today. If you send 6 words, the 7th one is free". The dog thinks for a while: "Bark-bark-bark-bark-bark-bark-bark? But that would make no sense!".
