change the rearwheel bearings on an 1982 opel corsa

Hi all, was wondering if anyone knows if its possible to change the rear wheel bearings on an 1982 opel corsa without a set of hydraulic pullers, ie with a hammer and punch and install the new ones with the same…… appreciate any comments Murray”

Well, my data system doesn’t have opels in it as they aren’t sold in the states anymore. BUT, the first car I owned was an Opel. Being a poor kid, I changed bearings out with hammer and punches and long pipes to reach into areas you can’t get to otherwise. If you’re inventive, you can do it. BUT, be REALLY careful putting the new bearings on. You don’t care if you destroy the old ones, but be careful where you hit the new ones (that’s where a pipe that fits exactly on the outside race of the bearing comes in handy.) Good Luck,
