I did my rear bearings a couple years back. I had access to a 55 ton press so the SIR tool never came into play.

I can see how valuable the tool would be to rear bearing R/R because you would not have to remove the parking brake components. I had a heck of a time on the passenger side getting my parking brake cable inserted through the hub. I spent more time on messing with parking brake stuff than the bearing R/R! I ended up having to file (and grease) the end of the cable jacket to get it to fit back in the hub...what a pain. No idea why as the drivers side wasn't an issue.
