I just changed the rear bearings.  I followed the procedure from "Clarks
Garage" but it was pretty general.  As many things that you do for the first
time they was a few problems.  I now though would consider myself a pro at
it.  If anyone needs to change their bearings out, I would be glad to give
you a step-by step technique that I was able to come up with.

Jet,

Next time just swap the axles.  You really didn't need to replace the
bearings.  I know this sounds like a rig job, but it is a very repair.  The
bearings wear one sided so you should have been able to get about 75K from
new, and then another 75K after the swap.
