Angle a long strong punch and tap back and forth/each side of ONE bearing.

The other you can just smash out..........

Push them out from opposite side with a long drift. I use an old 1/2" extension.

Bearing removal generally ruins the bearings.

There is a spacer between the bearings in the hub. You basically push it off to the side to get the drift onto the bearing and whack away with a BFH.
