Is it difficult to replace the bearing on my own. I have replaced alternators and starters. But didn't want to get into something that may require certain tools.

Hello,

The wheel bearings can be replaced quite easily. You will need a hub puller to pull the bearing hub off of the vehicle. This tool can be rented from your local auto parts store (see picture).

Here is a helpful guide:

I have attached diagrams for your reference.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
