Hello,

The wheel bearing can be removed with basic hand tools. It will be helpful to have a breaker bar to remove the axle nut as that can be little difficult to remove.
The wheel bearing is mounted with 3 bolts to the hub.
You will need a T-55 Torx bit to remove those bolts.

Here is a helpful guide:

I have attached diagrams for your reference.

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