Take off wheel.
Prise little cap off the hub. Pull out split pin and undo big nut.
Pull off hub.
Outer wheel bearing will fall out.
Turn hub over. Destroy grease seal. Inner bearing falls out.
The races will be left in the hub.
Bash these out with a big screwdriver or punch - try not to damage the hub. You will see 2 little 'cutouts' where you can
Reverse process.
Use a socket with the right diameter to tap the beaing races into place.
Be very sure to pack bearings with plenty of high temperature bearing grease (usually a blue color), and make sure there is the correct amount of preload on the bearing. Use new split pins and grease seals - they don't cost much.

Might help if you also remove the brake caliper, some people have had success with a large hammer and just bashing the hub off but thats bad!
