baffourg, get the car up so you can get underneath it. Now, find the rear driveshaft. If you look in the middle of the driveshaft, you will see a metal strap that comes down and around the driveshaft (about where the B-pillar is on the car). Inside that strap is the propshaft bearing. Use a grease gun and a needle attachment and go to town. Very easy to do.
