I haven't done tranny work (yet), but I have done axle and differential bearings in my 1949 Jeep (not the 8N--yet). So my comment below may not reflect the actual arrangement of 8n bearings.
A press and a bearing separator/puller are incredibly useful in getting bearings on/off the shafts. I don't think you can do it without the separator/puller. (Depending on the arrangement, sometimes you need the puller, and other times, you can put it in the press to push the bearings off--that's much nicer, IMHO.) You probably don't need the press--you can use a dead blow hammer. (Don't pound on the bearing you're installing--use the old bearing or something of an appropriate size in between.) But a press makes it soooo much easier.
