Heh...yeah, I have the little gnomes with hammers, all right.
This is the one that you need a press to change, right?
I've never used one. Careful use of an oven and freezer,
and some soapy water and a hammer have worked for me.
(Freeze bearing, heat support to 200 degrees, slick 'em up
and tap the bearing in in.)
Hmm. Okay, I guess that cuts down the number of special tools required,
although it still looks like I'd need a two-arm puller. I'm really not
too sure if this is something I can do in my apartment parking lot. The
shop manual makes it look like a pretty major undertaking. Just getting
the driveshaft out and back in is eight pages and involves jacking up
the transmission.
