I didn't bother to measure the preload on the old bearings prior to teardown since I knew I would be replacing the differential bearings anyways. I went from the "DD" shim that was previously installed to an "EE" and got my preload on the high range of spec for new bearings (0.78 to 1.57 Nm)

Unless you have a very large press, I used a deadblow with an appropriately sized socket to push the old bearings out.
