Removing rear wheel bearings.

How do you get the outer case of the bearing out of the rear hub. The Inners of the bearing came out when the shaft that has the wheel studs on was removed, so I now need to get the rest of the bearing bits out of the upright assembly to replace with new ones.

The usual approach is to tap them out using a soft metal drift, although professionals will press them out. Not trying to be funny but if you don't know what's involved, are you sure you should be doing this job?
