Take it from someone who like to do it their self, take them somewhere and
let a pro do this. I did mine myself with a press we have(uses a hyd.
jack) and it was a very scarry process as it took loads of pressure to move
them and when they did move it sounded like someone set off a small
explosive device in your face. READ DANGEROUS

Pressing them back in was a breeze. Mine were 68 vintage and probably had
never been changed.
