that's quite easy.... take off the wheel.. and drum rotor there's 4 14mm bolts.. as seen here
http://tril.pendulus.net/pics/camry/...02.jpg?offset=

pull off the brake/hub assembly and you should be able to see the wheel bearing... and replace the o-ring while you'r at it.. it's not resuable. 1$ insurance.. i can take more detail pics if you want... i have the whole rear assembly off the car from my swap.
