Pressing out front wheel bearings

[unrealrocks]

Has anybody had their wheel bearings pressed out? How much is a mechanic/garage likely to charge for doing this?

(If anybody has one of these in the Notts area then drop me a PM )

Just to update - I actually managed todo it in a large vice new ones are in, just gotta shove the hubs back on the car now

gd effort normally just take mine to a local garage! hubs shouldn't take long to re-fit, make sure you jack both sides of the car up otherwise re-fitting the strut bolts can be difficult.

I split a vice trying to press in bearings. My old boy wasn't best pleased and neither was his boss LOL
