I don't have anything on just the wheel bearing, but here's the manual for overhauling the front axles on the base. It's got some stuff about the wheel bearing. Sorry I don't have time right now to look for something more indepth.

You need to remove the steering kuckle off the vehicle and then use a press to press the bearing out. I've heard of people hammering out the bearings but I would not recommend it.
