Sweeet Thanx for the help, I guess I just press the old ones out and press the new ones in?

They'll be in there tight.
I used a 1/2" drive socket, and it was just the perfect size to press the old bearings out. I supported the fork in the middle (so I didn't snap it), and hammered the old ones out. I took some fine emery paper to remove the corrosion inside the bores, put a light coat of bearing grease on the outside of the new ones, and a couple light taps with a hammer later, they were installed. Took about 5 minutes.

Or use sockets and use a vise to press them out and in. If you have a vise, that is. You have more even pressure and control with a vise.
