At 120K miles on my 1999 9-5 and with funny bearing noises and vibration, I dismantled the front end (with the reassembly, probably the bulk of the work for this job) and took both steering knuckles and my replacement bearings from E-Europarts to my indie. I didn't see him force press the old bearings out, which usually destroys them, but he used a Saab specialty tool to install the new ones (a threaded screw and centering cup device) with some lube and the knuckle mounted in a bench vise to press the new ones into place. He also replaced the ball joints I also supplied new. The owner was headed out of town fishing for the weekend and we struck a cash deal of around $100 for his buddies' beer fund.
