What's the procedure for changing the front wheel bearing out on our quads? Can anyone give me some tips or pics??

Its the same as any other hub. Take the hub off. Press the bearings out one side at a time. usually press the outer off first then the inner. Then put them back in and don't forget the tapered spacer.

I've never done it before to any bike, what do you use to press them out with , do you need heat or is there a special press (tool)??

best to use a press. If you don't have one then take it to a place that does.

Also, freeze the bearing before installing.
