Welcome to NICO!

Unless you have a press, you might be out of luck. Also, you may need to check the hubs to see if the worn out bearings caused any damage. When my bearings went out they wore into the hub 1/8th of an inch and I had to buy new spindles. No since in trying to do it yourself when the problems may be worse than expected.
