I'll be doing that job pretty soon too. Keep us posted on how it goes. The swingarm bearings on my new 250SX are so bad that I'm worried I'm going to have other parts to replace as well.

4 easy steps

drill hole
insert dynamite
lite fuse
run like hell_

Seriously, they are usually rusted in and a PITA to get out, last time I did my R, spent an hour with Dremel cutting the old ones out.

This post was a while back but I fixed the swing arm bearings, it was simple, all I had to do was take out the bolt that was holdin it together on the right side(with a HUGE allen key) then take apart the differencial. Then I had to take out the bearings anc cut the ring that holds that bearings because it was stuck. I put the new bearings in, put it all together and it was perfect. No more cracking and banging:w00t:
