Its super easy...You do NOT have to take them to a shop and have them pressed on and off. Simply use a decent size prybar and gently pry it off evenly around the whole axle. It comes right off. I've done it 4 or 5 different times and have had good luck with it. On reinstalling just use a hammer and gently tap it back on evenly. Use a block of wood if you are concerned..
