If you get the correct size Bearing Buddies, its not a long process installing them. I don't think you need a shop to do this installation. They must fit snugly into the inside diameter of the hubs where the dust caps are currently installed. Its about a 1/8 to 1/4 inch seating area where they slip in.

1, Remove dust caps.
2, Clean the seating areas w/solvent.
3, Tap Bearing Buddies into hubs using a soft mallet or a wood block & hammer.

Do the bearings have (relatively) new grease ?
