Rear wheel bearing replacement, Parts needed? Options

[JawjaPorsche]

My right rear bearing is making noises. I called my mechanic and he said to get parts and he would install it.

I am looking at the exploded view of rear axle. (See below)

When I order parts, do I just need the Bearing #28?

Is there a race for the control arm because I don't see one?

Does he need to remove CV axle and tap out the bearing from the inside?

Thank you in advance for your help.

If your mechanic is doing the work then he will need to freeze it because it needs to come out of the freezer and directly into the trailing arm before it warms and expands!

I leave a 60w light on the trailing arm for a few hours before and coat it with a light coat of grease. Then I put the frozen bearing in and most of the time it slides in like butter!! But if you wait to long it will stick and you have to finish by pressing it the rest of the way in!

PS: It is way easier to do it on the bench than on the car!

I was going to pack it in ice before taking to the mechanic on Monday. He has a freezer and we will put in there while we dissemble the hub, CV axle, old bearing, etc! We will try to get heat on the trailing arm. It is going to low 30's Monday morning.

Thanks for the tip! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
