I have removed and installed many wheel bearings without a press. First I try to bang the old bearing out, but usually there's no movement. Second, I knock out the inner race and ball bearings, run a weld in the outer race to shrink/heat it, then tap it out with a brass drift. To put the new one in, use the old shrunken outer race to tap on while it touches only the outer race of the new bearing. Just remember to emery cloth the dirty surfaces to remove anything that could hang up the new bearing. Good luck and keep the cursing to a minimum.
