Jonathan, I have used an old socket to drive mine in. Just make sure you are driving on the outside race and not the center one. Also be careful not to damage the seal.

I'm gearing up to try my 5-speed swap this weekend, but when I got my flywheel back from the machine shop after resurfacing, there wasn't a bearing in the center. I guess the machinist removed it to get a smooth finish on the flywheel, and expected to replace it with a new one. So, now I have a flywheel, and a new bearing that came with the clutch kit. Does that bearing need to be pressed into the center of the flywheel, or is it something that can be carefully tapped into place with a mallet?
