Unfortunatly, you have to split the trans in order to replace the bearing/seal.
Not hard, but very time consuming if its your first time doing it. Also, the input shaft bearing is pretty much impossible to remove with hand tools.. Anything else in the trans you can do yourself.

i actually can pop that thing off from the front of the tranny tru the clutch side with a metal bar and a hammer.... u gotta replace that bearing anyways if u have it open..... and it comes nicely off..... thanxs to Mista bone for that trick....
