Mike,

It's as easy as it sounds if you are mechanicaly inclined.

Use marine grade wheel bearing grease.
Inspect the bearings for spawling, pitting, hot marks. (new bearings are cheap)
Make sure you get the right tension when re-installing them, too loose and they will spawl out on you, too tight and they will over heat.
Use a good punch with a square end to drive the bearing race out of the hubs, some times a long handle flat screw driver works well to get them started on the way out.

Sorry no pictures..but if you go to local auto store they might have a instruction manual that you could follow.
