What kind of tool is used to get the bearing in. From the looks of it a press would be the only thing to get it in. Is there any other special tool that can put it in?
I put the bearing in the freezer for a day or so and used a blow torch to heat up the hole but I could only get it in about 1/3 of the way.
If I can buy a tool to do it I would much rather do that then have someone (tranny shop) put it in.

Are you kinding? If it was a solid looking bearing i would do that but it doesnt look like it can take the hammer method. Did you do it and did it work? for 50 a pop I don't think I want to break too many of them.

The input shaft bearing is a solid steel one piece seal/roller bearing assembly that projects into the clutch housing anh reains the TO bearing. Are we talking about the same part?

I'd use a press if you got one nearby, otherwise do what Dino said and just hammer it in there. It might not want to go in b/c you have it cocked a tad. I had to make a jig to hold the tranny together when I did some synchros in one awhile back in votech school.
