I could some help with a rear bearing R+R..
I have the drive plate and half shaft coupler removed and the old bearing out. My question is the order of going back together...
1.Do I press the new bearing into the trailing arm housing first then
2. drive the drive plate into the bearing
3. drive the halfshaft coupler on last..
Please if you have done this before give me some tips.. I am doing this at home with makeshift tools to pull and press the bearings in and out..
