Before you get started, make sure you've got all the tools you will need for your hub. A bench vice is also very useful for replacing your hub bearings, but isn't necessarily essential if you don't have one in your home workshop.
Another really important thing to remember is to lay out all the parts of your hub in the order that you removed them. That way you'll know which order to put them back in when you get to that point. It can also help to take a picture of the hub at each point when you remove each part.
Let us know how you get on, and if you have any problems don't forget to leave a question for Jon.
