How to install rear bearings?

[Ron Coleman]

I looked up in the search feature but only found out how to remove.

This is actually a very common rear end housing,I would just grab a shop manual and go by that.This rear was used in 70-81 f-bodys,van trucks full size cars and many more so if you have any chiltons lying from another vehicle around it probably covers this.That would be better than having someone type it all out and probably more accurate too.It is generally a straightforward process of removing the parts,replacing said bearings and putting everything back the exact way it was before you popped the cover off minus the bearings.

So your saying i could just install it without a press?

thanks

That's right,they must be pressed onto the center section. I forgot about that part,see that's why the manuals are priceless compared to some dork at a keyboard!
