water pump shaft

I got new bearings in the cover now. The new issue is the pump shaft. It's a very tight fit, like a press fit. How do I know the correct depth? Does it butt up against the bearing?

I have the same problem trying to remove mine. I used a brass punch and hammer and gently tapped on it and nothing happens. I'm afraid to beat it out. Any suggestions?

My shaft was worn so I just ordered a new one. It wasn't expensive and with new bearings it pressed in pretty easy. I used the old one as a gauge for how far to press it in. Here's a picture of the wear.

Did you use some type of press or a punch to install/uninstall. Also is there some common place to order these parts or do you just OEM through some place like Motosport.com
