Answer
Both the front and rear wheel bearings need to be pressed out of the steering knuckle / hub assembly. As for the front bearings, you'll need to remove the steering knuckle, (part connected to upper and lower ball joints, and has hub attached) which is done by removing the axle nut, caliper, and detaching from upper and lower ball joints. (Use ball joint fork, try not to tar the boot, if torn its recommended to replace) After the knuckle is removed you need to find a way to prop it up so that the bearing can be pressed out from the back. I personally welded a jig from 3/8" square tubing but there are many ways this can be done. Just remember it needs to be sturdy enough to hold up to the press. Use a socket or piece of tubing wide enough to press the bearing from the outer race only as to not damage the old bearing. If your brakes could use a swap, now is the time BEFORE you press the new bearing in.
The back bearings are along the same line.
