I used a bearing press kit for front wheel drive vehicles, if I recall correctly. That, or I used a socket that matches the outside of the bearings and a hammer (I also did my wheel bearings on my Ridgeline at the same time, so I may be conflating the two when I say I used the front wheel bearing press kit). I used a micrometer to measure the distance. I had a small amount of water in the engine bilge and a patina on the water pump. I bought the rebuild kit from Parts4Engines.
