Dry Ice in Acetone shrinks the bearing race while the Acetone prevents ice crystals to form while the dry ice shrinks the race as well as prevents the Acetone to boil off so the race will pretty much drop in.
RTV will not seal because gear lube as well as transmission fluid will reject any RTV silicone over a short period of time. If you use anything here use Permatex gasket seal here.

any idea how to get the race out of the bottom of the gear box where this bottom shaft bearing sits?
I think the dry ice method would work. My bottom race was fine so I decided to leave it.
There is a frost plug on the bottom of the gear box, with it removed you can push the race out from the bottom..
