Thanks to many for helping me ID that I have a 55-62  rear end in my
1950 3100.

Now that I've got the correct bearing, seals and brake parts etc, are
there any tricks to getting them back in?  (Can you tell I've never done
this before?)

How much and how hard should I expect to have to pound on the bearings
to get them in?   Any reason to grease them?, or just add the gear oil
after?

Thanks, Sam
