Yes. It CAN be done on the car. But I'd never do that again. Just remove the 
whole hub (with bearings) and either have a Corvair vendor do it (or 
exchange), or do it yourself. It takes a special puller to remove the u-joint flange 
(avail from Clark's) And a pretty good press for the rest. Be sure you set the 
clearance to specs (on the lower side).
