the bearing has to be pressed into the knuckle. your best bet is to either remove the knuckle and take it to a shop that has a press to do the job or have the shop do it.

Yup. You probably won't be able to get it out by hand. The "book" method is to take the knuckle to a machine shop, have the old one pressed out, and the new one pressed in. Labor should run about 50 bucks, and the bearing should cost around 60.
