Trans bearings
The trans bearings are simple to replace if you have the tools. And you have to split the case. So I guess not so simple.

Once you have the transmission shafts out the front bearing slips on and off with ease.

The rear shaft has a press on collar. This is between the bearing and the output sprocket. Before removing the engine you should remove the big nut and output sprocket.

The sleeve will need to be pulled. There is no way to pry the sleeve off. Don't even try or you will damage things.

The threads on te shaft are very fragile so I keep the bolt loosely attached most of the time.

Using a gear puller or a bearing separator is the best way. Any auto shop will have these tools and not charge much to swap the bearing. Just pay attention to the bearing orentation. There is a clip that holds the bearing in the trans. These are half moon clips in the upper case half. Make sure there in place when you go together as they can stick to the old bearing and get lost.

Then just reaassemble the engine acording to the manual.
