Help! Need carrier bearing!

Help, driveline is on the ground, carrier bearing is shot!! Does anyony have direscions on how to replace??

I called the dealer yesterday when it went out. They ordered one and were going to install it today, but in trying to limp home, dropped the back half of the driveline. Now truck is disabled, and would cost too much to trailer it to the shop (20 miles), and then have them put it in.

It looks pretty self-explanitory, but didn't know if there were any cautions/hints.

I also heard that Napa Auto Parts may have a replacement that is stronger.

Thanks in advance...
