Default Changing front wheel bearing?

Has anyone done this before? Can anyone give me a heads up as to waht is involved, or should this be farmed out?

There'* a recent topic on this subject and some Techinfo material. I suggest Chilton'* #28200 and read the recent topic (should be on this first page) and the Techinfo article.
