Set the case on your press with the front of it facing up, and supported close to the rear bearing. Press the front countergear bearing inward, into the case. The inner edge of it will press on the gear, which will press on the rear bearing. Once the bearings are clear, the gear will move far enough rearward for you to remove the front bearing and tanged thrust washer from the gear. Shouldn't require very much pressing.
