He also said if it is not properly done the rear end bearings will die almost immetitly, and he used to work at a rear end shop.

You can swap the pinion flange without upsetting the backlash or preload on the pinion bearings. Just undo the the pinion nut and swap them over. You might put a new flange oil seal in while you do it. Torque the nut up as Subafreak says.
