to remove carrier bearing, u will need to removbe the drive shaft from the vehicle
the carrier bearing is bolted to chassis with 2 bolts . these will need to be removed and the carrier and bearing will come out with the drive shaft
one drive shaft is out you can then knock old bearing and carrier off of shaft with a hammer. the old carrier is no good so doesnt matter if you trash it
once you get old one off, carefully known new one onto shaft until seated,being careful to note which is front of carrier bearing
you can then reinstall cariier bearing and drive shaft to truck. NOTE: now is a good time to check and replace if needed the U-Joints on the drive shaft

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.

Many carrier bearing assemblies must be pressed off and on the shaft.

For that matter, they don't usually charge much to remove and replace the driveshaft so it's often not worth the trouble to do it yourself.
