Pull the spindle.
Take off the axle-nut,tie-rod,upper and lower ball joints, un-bolt the caliper and let it hang. I used a hammer and a draft-punch to get out the old ones. Not that hard of a job. Breaking loose the axle-nut was probably the hardest thing. Put the new ones back in with a like-sized socket and a few taps.

use a impact on the axle nut if possible.there is a spacer in the middle of the bearings.its kinda hard to get one started out until u get a little practice at it.once u get the one,either or out the other one is a breeze.just leave the seals in,they will come out with the bearings.

dont forget to put the spacer back in!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yea it is not hard. I used the old bearing and hammer to tap the new bearing in. An like RedNeckRhino said do not forget the spacer.

i do like ridepate said but i take the arms off the frame. the ball joints are a pain to get out without messing them up.
