Good input, 
Yeah for sure smaller diameter is typically super easy to press. I used that induction heater for large bearings on street car (train) wheels.
What’s interesting about that bearing, (though have replaced a few of those assemblies, I don’t currently have the actual part in hand, nor did I note)
I don’t see a shoulder for the bearing to seat. So it’s appears to be held in place by press fit alone or possibly tapered? It’s also a deep bearing press, lots of surface area.
@S-Prihadi do you see a shoulder for that bearing to seat?
But you are correct, it will depend on desired class of press fit. Only way to tell designed press fit is disassemble and measure.
Cheers!
