Default Tools for gear swap

Maybe I shoulda posted this in the tools section, but I figured more people would see it here. Im gonna do a gear swap in my 10 bolt and Im just wondering what inexpensive tools or makeshift tools everyone uses to pull and press bearings on the carrier and pinion. I already have the other setup tools such as dial indicator and all that stuff, but I dont have access to a shop and a press anymore so just wondering what works good for everyone. I dont want to throw down a lot of money on tools I wont be using very often. I also would like to keep the pinion bearing in good shape so I can reuse it to check pinion depth. Also what do you use to install the new races??
Thanks

You might want to check the sticky at the top of this section. Just a thought.
