1998 Mrecedes e320 rear bearing replacement. I can buy the wheel bearing online, how difficult is it to replace? If I have a shop do the work - how much should I expect to pay in labor?

The rear wheel bearing must be pressed on using a large hydraulic press, best left to a mechanic, a general mechanic can do this job.
