Alot of folks may want to do their own bearing work at home
Many get confused on the tools needed, you can spend a ton of money on Jim's and HD tools, or you can try an inexpensive puller like this 1 from Harbor Freight. I am NOT saying it works 100 per cent of the time, I have had luck with a pilot puller similar to this ( being retired tech) I have all my own pullers and bearing splitters. To pull the bearings back in I have frozen them in the freezer, they will MOST times drop right in, if not a threaded rod, a socket just a bit smaller in diameter as the bearing, and a plate on the back side will push the bearings in the hub. Good Luck and save some money.
Here is a threaded rod pusher for installing
