Dunno if it applies to your Legend, but you should be aware of what we went
through with the pilot bearing on my son's Integra. We had a devil of a time
getting the pilot bearing out of the flywheel. We finally broke down and
removed the flywheel... then found the bearing can only come out from the
back! Live and learn and curse.

Btw - the flywheel was in great shape so we elected not to have it turned;
we just Scotchbrited the surface to deglaze it and cleaned it with brake
cleaner.
