I need to replace the front bearing in my differeintial. It looks like I can jsut pry out the grease seal and just slip the bearing out - but I'm not sure I can do that without dong damage. Help, I need to know how to do this.

Are we talking about the pinion bearing? Or an axle shaft? If it's the pinion forget it. The bearing is pressed onto the pinion shaft. This is the last part to come out on complete dissasembly! If you go that far also do the race.
