You should be able to tap the bearings out with a hammer and drift. If you use a brass drift it will be less likely to scratch the housings. You use a large socket to install the new bearings. Grease the bearing liberally first.The socket should bear only on the outer race and you carefully tap it into place. The new bearing may have a relieved edge to facilitate entry and the usual rule is that the writing on the bearing is the edge that faces you. If they are taper bearings you tighten them to hand tight then back off a quarter turn to obtain working clearance. This clearance disappears when the bearing gets hot in use. It would be advisable to buy the Haynes manual for the car as this will guide you through the whole procedure step by step.
Never owned a Taurus -- however,, I would like to remind you of the two most important things that you keep up on your car --- auto insurance and good brakes ...
Replacing wheel bearings is a thing of the past - Now you just buy a wheel hub. The assembled wheel hub already has the bearings seals already in it. Just take the old hub off bolt the new one on.
