Instructions for Sir Tool B90 bearing tool

Does anybody have a copy of the bearing removal/installation instructions for this tool set?
I'm studying a few posts here before diving into the rear wheel bearings on my '86 turbo.
Some decent methods and solutions are presented for keeping the trailing arms in place.
I might spring for the Sir Tool Master kit - B90, if it would make the job easier.
I understand that the set doesn't have ALL of the things I will need because of the two bearing design on the turbos.
Hopefully, the instructions would tell me how much easier the process could be.

thanks,

terry

Let me bore you a little bit more to explain where I'm at with this...
The engine is out for some attention and the CV axles are being replaced.
So, I'm suffering from the "what else should I do while it's out" blues!
The rear sits a bit low and maybe I should replace the spring plate rubber bushings?
If I do that, I'm only an inch away from taking the trailing arms off.
With the trailing arms off, the rear bearing replacement can be done on my 20 ton press.
The "what else" blues are conflicting with the "if it ain't broke" theory.

Terry - check my thread a few posts below. I am just about to update it. I am following the process posted by dap930. With some mods as I don't have access to all the tools he had.
Any queries - post em up.

Terry - having finished the job, I don't see any great advantage taking the trailing arm off to do the job. Lot of extra work for minimal gain - the chance to use a press on the arm. The alternatives work OK. I have to remember I have a hoist - so working on the arm in situ is a comfortable job for me. But I think it is more an advantage to leave it in the car.
