Default 04 oldsmobile alero wheel bearings

hey guys my fiance has an '04 Oldsmobile Alero & her wheel bearings on the front are making noise so i was going to see about replacing them. but i was wondering if i would need to have a press to replace them or were they not that design? if anyone knows and could help me out i would really appreciate it.

Yup, there just a hub. Take the wheel off then the brake assembly, Pop axle out of it, Break lose the 3 or 4 bolts on the hub pop out a reverse the process.

I have a 04 Grand Am and a shop told me the wheel bearings were going bad....I put new brakes on the car and NO more noise. Also, if do have to buy new hubs, look around and check pricing.....they are not cheap. I found some good prices on e-bay.
