I do have a press, thank goodness. I like that folks are saying how simple the 833s are. I pulled apart my 904 a couple years ago, and it really wasn't as complicated as I thought it would be. I'm guessing the 833 is simpler.
Similar, yes. Gotta make sure it seats back in after the new bearing is in. My buddy bought a 'brand new' 833, and it had weird issues. Turned out that ring wasn't seated, and on the 2nd gear shift it would shove the whole gearset rearward and grind on things. Took us a few hours of polishing the ring on a piece of glass with 600 grit until we got it seated with no play.
