69 to 73 911 and 69 912 use the same procedure and parts. The book method to replace the rear bearings requires you to remove the rear trailing arm and press the bearings out. This requires realignment.
There is a tool available that you can use to press the old bearings out and in without removing the arms. The procedure is simple and the directions are included in the kit if I remember correctly from the one I looked at. The good part is as you do not need to remove the rear arm and don’t need the realignment.
You are lucky that you have a 69 just the inner bearings for the 66 to 68 are $125.00. The bearings for the 69 to 73 are about $50 each and the tool to remove and replace is Performance P# 910775 $81.95 and the needed nut/bolt kit is another $74.95 P#910774.
PCA members get a 20% discount from Performance but the prices are high to start with. I don’t know if Pelican sells the tool and parts but I bet they do.
