Hans.....each to they're own but i put the wheel down on the ground chocked up on wood so the cast does not get damaged and so the center hub is off the floor... i then put a steel bar through the wheel from the top and knock the bearing on the bottom out...then flip the wheel and do the same.......give the wheel a good clean before the new bearing goes in.
to put the bearings back in i use a thick length of stud bar and two flat plates which are the right diameter for the bearing and to fit inside the hub.......you then wind two nuts on each end and tighten them up so they squeeze the bearings into the hub.....voila

There would have to be at least three types of bearings in universal Carriers. I suspect that the Windsor and T16 are the same. There are solid bearings (bushes) std ball race type, and semi thrust type ball races. There are at least two seal setups The bearings are all interchangeable when used in pairs (one wheel)
