Wheel bearing worn out

I inserted a long screwdriver into the wheel opening a hammered the old bearing out ...I applied some grease to the bearing to make installation easier,. I placed a small block of wood against the new bearing to prevent damage ,and tapped it into place... remember to line the beveled side of bearing with the grease fitting once the bearing was seated into place I put the wheel back on and used the washers and retaining clip to hold the wheel securely on the axle.
