As extreme90 says, a right ball ache of a job.

The bearing can only be removed by taking the diff apart. The bearing is only removable from the inside.

Rebuilding requires tools to set up the preloads, etc.

For the price of a second hand unit, I'd just buy one.

I have 10 & 24 spline diffs if required. £50 each + delivery (£25 due to the weight)

I did mine yesterday, seemed a pretty easy job tbh. Although this mention of setting the diff back up does have me a bit worried. Its all bolted back up, in and working and seems a million times better than before but could there be long term problems?

It can be done quiteeasily if the workshop manual and a preload gauge is used gav, if you need to borrow one give me a shout!
