Cheap....... but is it nasty :)

it should certainly help. ya can always just destroy the old bearings as long as you dont send bits down the tube into the pumpkin.

All you need is a 12 point 1/4 ring spanner and a length of steel rod about 20mm diameter, a foot longer than your axle.
Use the spanner to release the screw in the diff holding the cross pin in. Remove ( or half remove) the cross pin and then insert your rod in the axle, through the diff and use it to punch out the bearings from behind.
Peasey.
