I have done a few 10 bolts in the last year. I took my dremel carefully cut the pressed on portion of the bearing so it was almost cut through. Then using a cold chisel I split the bearing, tapped in off. Then I installed the new bearings using the old split bearing with a hammer to tap the new bearings on. Worked fine.
Just take yourtime, wear safety glasses and don't cut too deep.

a shop can use a press to get the pinion bearing off/an as well as a puller that is used to get the diff berings off

Mechanics have to eat too man. There are tools to take them off with, and they cost big bucks too; you wouldn't get that done for $20 where I work. I don't know why people think all mechanics should work for free. Do you work for nothing? I'm not trying to get into a pissing match either; that just gets to me. Have a good one.
