The bearing type is probably an "RR", which signifies a rubber seal both sides.

Thanks there SD1t00, I didn't have a drawing for it and Rimmers pictures don't help much.

I like the " just slide it off" lol, call Mr Blowtorch and Mr Hammer.

Thanks to all, some great advice. My garage people tell me it is the roller bearing that has gone. I have just had to replace the coil spring on the offside as it had snapped and dropped into the tyre, shredding it. Could this have damaged the bearing? We think we have now sourced a bearing, so will let you all know how things progress. A bit happier now!

Just to let youknow, we located a suitable bearing from uk manufacturer. It has been fitted to the drive shaft (lots of heat required) and all seems to be well. Thanks for the input guys.

For your information the number from the offside transmission shaft support bearing is 114-865-2RS-3Z-C3 the size being 35x72x25W.

Hope this helps although you will need some heat to disasemble.
If the faulty bearing is in peices to get the outer shell of the bearing realesed the tip here is to run a ring of weld along the ball groove and it will almost fall out.
