This rear axle bearing replace think is way out of hand. I did it for 15 years and it justis not that hard, if not replacing axle housing gasket, if rplacing gasket just a step or two more.
And this is true for H M through 460 560.
(1) drain oil, remove PTO and wheel tire rim all in one, maybe jack the tractor up first.
(2) remove the axle housing end cap.
(3) remove the cap screw from bull gear end of axle, remove washer off cap screw.
(4) reinstall cap screw, place a spacer between the two cap screws between axles and back out the loose screw this will bush axle out and outer bearing out of housing.
(5) pull the bull gear back and over to the other side.
(6) remove the cap screws from the inside bear retainer and remove the retainer.
(7) use a long bar and tap inner bearing out.
(8) replace the inner bearing and retainners, replace outter bearing on axle install in housing, put bull gear back in place. Using a bar through the pto use a bar to lift the bull gear enough to line up with the axle and start the axle enough to pull it in with the cap screw.
(9) replace axle end cap.
If need to replace housing gasket loosen draw bar remove housing cap screws and now you can remove housing with out hoist. Did this many times and never had a hoist to remove the wheel with fluid in 15.5 tires.
