Who has replaced these?
How much physical effort is required? Is a press needed?
Do CVs need to be removed?
Thanks
Dave

yes you need to remove the axles and inner n outer CVs to do the rear wheel bearings
no presses needed but you will need a good set of circlip pliers and some pin punches

forgot to ask why are you doing the rear wheel bearings are they noisey or ????
Have you removed the axles and backed off the brakes and spun the wheels to listen for noises etc etc ???
If the seals are good they usually last for ever

Dave,
The van is 1982 and I have a number of maintenance jobs I'd like to do to satisfy another member of the family (biggish and fairly critical trip coming up). I also have the front callipers to overhaul and some bushings to replace at the front.
