Help me ,
for what is is that tool good?
When you remove the outer ring from the grooved bearing and heat the housing, the bearing stay on the shaft and you get the box apart easy?
Or is that diff, at the 265 than the 242?

I haven't ever opened up/worked on a transmission. If you look at the link below they show steps for pulling apart a 265, there are pictures that look like they are using this puller. I had hoped that someone with more knowledge than me can offer some insites. I get the feeling that these 265's are getting fewer and fewer so I wondered if there was enough knowledge out there to do full rebuilds. Below is the link:

As far as I see (and as I know) the front part of the gear box is almost the same like the 4 speed.
And as well you see, that here destroy the bearings by dismount with force.
So the better method will be to leave the bearing(s) in the shaft by heating thre housing and than remove the bearing also by heating from the shaft.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
Pic show the housing from the 528 website where you see both bearings destroyed.

Breiti, the bearing in that housing is not destroyed.
That transmission has a 3-piece bearing, with the inner race split into 2 separate pieces.
Go back to page 2 of that website link.
The tool is used to remove the 1 remaining inner bearing race from the shaft.
Here is a new Porsche transmission bearing of the same design, with 3 pieces...
