Relatively easy but from what others have posted you need a large press to get the bearings out and the new ones in .

And you'll destroy the ABS sensor in the process.

Might be easier to grab a used hub assembly from somewhere - that's what I did.

As i think I mentioned else were my front bearing done by local garage, told me they used i think 9 tons of hydraulic pressure to get the little devil out, never destroyed the sensor though.
