Just use plenty of grease around the bearings to keep them in place otherwise you will have problems refitting them.
speak to Marc MacDonald, he is good

If you're having problems getting the old bearings out, stick the wheel in the freezer overnight. The bearings will then slide out easily. If you're having problems getting the new bearings in, stick the bearing in the freezer. Simples!

You'll get a bike wheel into just about any chest freezer. Taking the tyre off helps.
