That depends on what you mean by easy and on what vehicle (there are several types of wheel bearings and assemblies). For someone with the correct tools, preferably with a repair manual, and a little mechanical experience, it is pretty easy for most vehicles. For someone who can't change a spark plug or a tire, probably not so much.

How do you replace a front wheel bearing on a 1996 dodge stratus?
I have had to do this. This process is generally the same for any car. 1 Take off the wheel with the bad bearing. 2 Remove the caliper 3 Behind the caliper is the end of the axel. Inside of it, you will see a circular shaped object lined with bearings. Just pull it out. You usually have to replace the what I'm pretty sure is called the rase. Basically, this is a metal liner that sits between the bearing and the inside of the axel. This is not easy to get out! I'm sure there is some special tool you can borrow from an automotive store. They usually loan these kinds of things out for free. If you can't get this liner out by yourself, you might consider having a mechanic put new bearings on for you.
Where do you find the speed sensor for a Chevrolet lumina?
The speed sensor is on the front passenger side of the car. Loosen the nuts on the wheel, then jack it up. remove the wheel. As you look where the wheel was, to your left is the speed sensor. It is at an angle, angled towards the back of the car. first unhook the wires attached. you can do this by hand. next, remove the bolt that is holding the speed sensor on. I believe it is a 10mm, and you will need a deep socket. once you remove the bolt, the sensor slides right out. Also, make sure you replace the "O" ring on the sensor. this is an easy job.
