Changing Bearings?

Can anyone help with regards to providing information for changing Bearings on a Zanussi FJS1425W washing machine. I would like to try myself to save costs

take the whole drum out of cabinet and then remove pulley wheel.remove 17 bolts around middle of drum.split it in half.remove stainless inner drum (might need to use a drift to get shaft out of bearing).now knock bearings and seal out of rear tub.refit in reverse.if shaft is damaged replace it or it will only last a short while before the bearings fail again.you need a new tub seal to do this job properly
