Hi guys, what is the best method to get front wheel bearings out and put new ones in ??? I got the knuckle off and ready to go, trying to do it myself but a little stuck and not confident on how to do it correctly. Please help this wannabe mechanic !!!

Sorry, my beast is a 1992 Brumby. Has a constant squeak under load at front wheel. Brakes and suspension seem to be fine. Tie rod and ball joints all ok. Never replaced bearings on her before. Done 337000kms.

It is very in depth and will tell you that you need special tools (you don't) use it as a guide and as questions in this thread before you actually attempt the job.
