This is a complex operation requiring a hydraulic press and the correct tools. While it is possible for a home mechanic to do it, it's really one of those situations where if you have to ask you probably should take it to a qualified shop. You can take the spindle assemblies off and take them to an automotive machine shop that should be able to do this for no more than $30 each. Be aware that this type of bearing can feel loose when it's off the car, it relies on the torque of the CV shaft nut to locate the components.
The front wheel bearings need to be pressed into the spindles. This is something an automotive machine shop would normally do. The rear wheel bearings are bolt-on hub assemblies.
The front wheel bearings must be pressed into and out of the spindle/hub assembly. You will need to take the spindle assembly to an automotive machine shop to have this done.
My front wheel bearings just went in my 04 mountaineer, and we tried to replace them ourselves, but in order to get to the bearings you have to have the truck up on a lift, so unfortunately we had to send it to a mechanic.
