Get a 12 ton press from Harbor Freight. It's on sale for $79. That is all you need to press anything on and off the T56.

Put the shaft in a freezer, then go get a cheap hot plate, and a cheap sauce pan, put the bearing in and add enough oil to cover it. turn it on med hi and let it simmer. take the bearing out, and drop it on the frozen shaft. will fall right on.

I was thinking that. Except i was going to use the deep freeze at work with a heat gun on the bearing.
