the bearings are settled within the hub, just take hammer and slightly hit the end of the axle (not the threads) few times and it should pop out the bearings, be careful

Be careful to not damage the threads on teh axle when taking it out. If you dont have a rubber hammer thread a axle nut on backwards so you are not hammering straight on the axle. You might want to make sure you have an extra axle nut b/c there is a slight chance of boogerign the axle nut's threads -- but hey axle nuts are wayyy cheaper than a new axle.
