center support bearing

Im replaceing all my u- joints and i was looking at my support bearing and i noticed that the rubber that is around the bearing isnt really atached to the bearing.Its been about 20 years since i replaced one of these and i cant really remember but im thinking that the bearing and the rubber should be all together in one piece so that the bearing could not spin inside the rubber am i right or not? The bearing feels fine its just that its broke loose from the rubber.Normally i would just replace it if there was any question but if i remember right this is quite a job to replace.

Thanks Jeff

Most of the time all it takes is a punch or a flat chisel and a hammer. A good eye helps.

Not any harder than replacing u-joints.
