That looks like the inside of an old bearing. I think it should come off

Yes there should be a spacer, but the spacer is narrower than the ball bearing race in your picture. I can measure a spacer tomorrow night if you need.
Good Luck

Confirmed yes there is a spacer it measures .564 width . outside diameter is 1.61 and it has a single groove on outside. I don't know how to post pics on forum but ill post it on buggy builds. I thought there was a spacer been awhile since had one apart lol.
