its very easy i've just done mine just need a big hammer and a chisel lol



when taking them out there is a little slit where you can put the chisel in just to get the edge of the bearing carrier then just tap it out...


fitting the new ones put a little greece around the bearing carrier and in the hub then get a piece of wood just to start tapping it in evenly then just tap around it with the hammer. just done!
