You have to pull the bearing assembly out. Be careful and do not let the cap covering the bearings come off.

How do you fix the front drive shaft on your 1996 Chevrolet Silverado?
Assuming you need new U-joints on the shaft I will try to explain... First remove the bearing retaining u bolts from front differential and the tranny. Be careful while separating the shaft from parts( you may have to use a pry bar) that the bearings do not fall out of the cups. There are snap rings on one side of the U joint, remove those with a pair of needle nose pliers and then prop the shaft on a 2x4 or something and pound out the old ujoint with a ball peen hammer and a socket so you do not bend the shaft where the ujoint is in. Once you have it loose wiggle it out and reinstall the new ujoint but do NOT pound it in with the hammer you'll end up damaging the new bearings, repeat with other side if needed. Hope this makes sense and helps you out.

Quite simply you have to remove the pistons. first drop the oil pan second disconnect connecting rod end caps third either remove crankshaft or remove cylinder heads then finally remove pistons. removing pistons are commonly removed from the bottom of the engine. they are pushed out of the top where the cylinder heads sit. Once removed you can replace the rings and then you have to get a piston ring compressor to reinstall the pistons.

How do you remove a you joint from a 95 suburban. it has never ben removed before and i cant get the u joint out i have the drive shaft out already just cant remove the u joint from the drive shaft?
The original u-joint is held in place by a plastic lock ring on each cap. I heat the end caps with a torch until the plastic oozes out then use a u-joint press to press the joint out. The replacement joint comes with metal lock rings.

How od you change the carrier bearing in a 1992 Toyota pickup?
The carrier bearing is removed from the drive shaft, after it is removed from the vehicle. Block and level the truck and remove the clamps or snap rings on both the universal joints and then unbolt the carrier bearing assembly from the truck. If memory serves, it needs to go to a drive shaft shop to have the old bearing pressed off and the new one pressed on. There is an outside chance that it will come off in pieces, but unlikely. If the truck is in the rust belt, you're better farming the whole job out.

Yes, or it will go off and they will make you remove them anyways, because most rings are made of metal.

If you have worn rings, the motor is already hurt. If the bearings are as bad as the rings, catastrophic failure is right around the corner.
How to Safely Remove a Computer Hard Drive?
Many computer users may never need to know where their computer hard drive is located. However, there are some that will inevitably have to replace their hard drive for whatever reason. Doing so may seem difficult, but it really isn’t. Listed below are some steps which will help you safely remove a hard drive. • The first step is one of the most important steps of this process. Make a back up of everything on your computer. Anything that is on your computer that you cannot risk losing needs to be backed up on a disk or external drive. If somebody other than you plans on using that hard drive, you should erase all the data on that drive as well. You can do so by reformatting your hard drive. • The second step is also very important. For your safety, once you have opened the case, any metal, such as rings, bracelets or metal near the computer should be removed. Once you have removed all the metal from around the computer, unplug the computer from the electrical outlet. After, and only after, the computer has been unplugged, touch the metal casing of the computer to prevent any static charge. • Once you have located the hard drive, disconnect it. Then unplug the hard drive from the power cables and the IDE. Grab the IDE cable and gently pull it until the connector breaks free. This can seem difficult if the connector is fitted tightly, but just give it a little tug. Make sure you pull straight out. You do not want to bend any pins during the process. • Once this is completed, you can remove the hard drive. If the hard drive is in a metal cage, find the screws that are holding it in place and remove them. Once the cage is free, remove the screws from the cage to free the hard drive. If your hard drive is not in a cage, then you will need to remove the screws on either side of the hard drive and take it out of the case. There you have it. You have successfully and safely removed your computer’s hard drive. Make sure you keep all the little screws somewhere they will not be lost, as you will need them to install your new hard drive.
