Rear Axle Bearing Replacement 200 1983

I'm also getting ready to replace my rear wheel bearings, and I'd be interested in knowing if I can get them off and on without a press. Were you really able to get the new ones on without a press, using only heat and cold? I live in Texas, but I thought one press-less solution would be to bathe the wheel-end of the axle in ice or dry ice, and heat the lock ring with an oven or a heat gun. I am a little reluctant to take a hammer to my old car! Thanks for your help!
