A shop with a press will be needed to replace the bearings. I think most guys on here would recommend the (green) bearings. The 8-3/4 does not require you to pull the pumpkin (what you are calling the hub) both axles can be withdrawn without touching it. One side will have an adjuster on it to take out the side play when you reinstall the axles. As far as the tag goes, the factory did install them when new. You should be able to do this without much effort. Be safe and always use jack stands and eye protection.
