Default Front wheel bearing....easy?

Hi, the front near side wheel bearing on my 99 classic turbo needs replacing and i just wondered whether it was an easy enough job?

I have replaced a good few bearings in the past but never on a scooby, just wondered whether there was any special tools ie presses that i needed to carry out the job?

Oh and any suggestions for a place to buy the replacement?

Thanks in advance.

Dave.

honestly

NO

a lot of them tend to heat up when worn and weld themselves to various parts, a lot of them dont make much noise either so they can go undetected for a long time

better to pay somebody to swap em IMO, just like i did, and it turned out mine was a ******* as well to get out
