If you go to the home page, pick the "information" tab, then pick "how to guides" there is a pdf file on rear wheel bearings.
you will need a big vice and an angle grinder to get the old bearing off, or you can take the halfshaft and bearing to a garage to have a new one fitted.
Fitting the new one needs a press, or a scaffold tube and a hammer.
If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there :)
