The hardest part of the job is getting the old bearing removed from the axle.
Some tips:
You can use a big chisle & hammer to "V" the bearing "lock ring" and that will release it from the shaft.
Use a "wizzer wheel" to "slit & split" the bearing races if you do not have a press and bearing "spreader". (as shown)

A section of pipe and heating the bearing & lock ring, will make new bearing installation easier.
