How do you remove and replace the bearings on these hubs?

I'm guessing a bearing puller and then machine pressed on?

Grab yourself a drift, a length of steel rod, or pipe. Reach it in through one side, to the inner race on the opposite side. Drive bearing out with a hammer. Flip hub around, reach through the second side back to the first, and repeat. Drive in new bearings carefully and squarely with a block of wood, socket, bearing driver, or pipe of same OD as bearing outer race.

We got them out, but thanks. Problem on one side was old bearing broke apart and almost welded itself in the inner groove. Now one bearing seats tight and the other kind of wants to slide out with gravity.
