Fix it right, if the rubber's shot the bearing probably isn't too far behind, and they fail at the worst times and if ignored for long drop the driveshaft on the pavement.
Should be a slipyoke there, mark the driveshafts, slide the slipyoke off, strip any remaining rubber away, and pull or press the bearing off of the shaft.
When going back together, clean the bearing mounting area, I use a drop of Loctite retaining compound since there's nothing but the press fit to keep the bearing in place, you need a pipe or sleeve that will just slip over the splines, and catch the ID of the new bearing, but small enough not to destroy the metal dust shield next to the bearing. Tap it in place, or better yet press it (but it takes a tall press because of the driveshaft length).
Match your marks and slide the slipyoke back in place. Likely, there's one odd spline so it will only go back together one exact way, but that doesn't stop some guys. My son works parts at a dealership and had to order new yoke just the other day, after the "factory trained" hacks in the shop tried to pound one together without matching the odd splines up!

Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size. What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
