How can I change my Drive Shaft Centre bearing?

How can I change the drive shaft centre bearing on an 04 Ford Transit 2.4ltr TD 280 MWB van?

remove propshaft,4 bolts at g/box,4 at diff and 2 bolts at c/bearing, remove dust cover at splines and remove shaft,mark each side before you split it and refit onto same spline,remove 17mm bolt at u/joint,slide up `u` plate and remove u/j yolk from spline,this may be tight.Knock off c/bearing with 2lb hammer and good chisel and hammer new one on with punch concentrating on inner bearing race and re assemble prop shaft in reverse,good luck
