85 Universal joint

HI, My son was trying to replace the center support bearing on the drive shaft. As I was checking out his progress I noticed one of the bearing caps on the rear drive shaft is MIA! So we went to napa picked up a new one (u-joint). I cant for the life of me understand how to take the old one off and of course put the new one on. Do I need a press?? Any helpful tips would be great. Brad
