Rear wheel bearings

My right rear wheel bearing (IRS) has gone south. For those who have BTDT - how big a pain is it to replace?
TIA Bill

No big deal if you have some tools and a Bentley manual.

Thanks George.....Have tools (except a press which may be handy, also an excuse to but one) and a useless Chilton's manual. It sez take the swing arm to a dealer. Is it just basically a press it out press it in thing?

Yeah.

It's a two and a half hour pain in the ass. Plan on a morning. It's pretty straight forward. You'll need a star socket to pull the axles and you will also need snap ring pliers to get the retainer holding the inner bearing. The inner bearing is a little hard to drive out, but you'll find two little spaces to drive the bearing out, from the outside. I built a little wood press to pull that inner bearing back in. I used a door hole saw and a piece of plywood. then I just started it, ran a bolt through to the outside of the wheel bearing housing and pulled it through. Write me off line and I'll send you my phone number so you can call me and we can talk about it. It's pretty straighforward. Be sure to keep the order of the washers and bushings straight.
