Once removed, you must separate front and rear drive-shafts, again after marking for proper realignment at re-installation. The old carrier bearing must be pressed off and the new one will need to be pressed back on, again making sure that the original orientation between front and rear drive-shafts is preserved. Then reinstall drive shaft as removed. The two drive-shafts are balanced as a unit, so the orientation of them must be maintained, to keep them in balance. I've not done this project before, so I don't have any practical advice to add. Hope it helps you.
