Ford Courier Rear Axle Bearing

Hi.
I recently bought a Ford Courier diesel, model year 1996, and I need to replace the rear axle bearings.
So, it's not the wheel bearings, but the mounting of the rear axle.
Does anyone know WHERE I can find more information about this?
Or can someone provide me with a repair description directly?
Perhaps a tip, or a URL?
Best regards, Frank.

Hi.
And now, the burning question:
How do I get the control arms off the torsion bar spring?
Are they just pressed in, or are they also screwed in?

Best regards, Frank.

Hi.
Okay guys, please explain it to me.
Is my request so stupid that people are embarrassed to answer?
Or are these couriers usually discarded once these deliveries are completed?
Best regards, Frank.

Well, you're in a forum that mainly focuses on the area under the hood of VAG vehicles. I have to admit, I've never actually worked on a model of your car. Perhaps the others here feel the same way, although that's just a possibility .

"No offense, but your question is valid and neither silly nor poorly phrased. The knowledge needed to answer it might simply be lacking."

Hi Matthias,
Okay, let me bring you up to date on the latest developments:
The Ford dealership cannot say how much it will cost, even if the fully assembled axle is placed on the workbench.
Specialized tools, such as a puller, are not available for this somewhat specific task.
One mechanic says it could cost between 30 and 80 euros, while another says it could easily be 300 euros. The last mechanic mentioned that the rotating rod is broken in the middle (it's located in a socket) and that there are TWO rotating rods.
According to the screen, it's definitely just one rotating rod.
For me, it's already clear that I will NEVER buy a Ford as a new car, and the reason for that is because they can't properly repair a car that's already 10 years old.
I'll see what I can rig up to properly disassemble this stuff.
Best regards, Frank.

Well,

"If even Ford dealerships are making vague statements... unfortunately, cars of your model are not really known as classics or worth preserving. The vehicles at the scrapyard probably belong there as well, and used spare parts are practically non-existent."

Perhaps you should try calling Ford workshops in larger cities, because it's quite possible that your car hasn't even been put on a lift at some Ford workshops yet.

Hi Matthias,

After some dirt was scraped off and the inspector took a closer look, the bearings are still good for another 2 years.
I can now take some time to carefully make or have made the necessary tools to press out the bearings.
Best regards, Frank.
