I had the dealer install the bearings and new tires, then swapped them for the old myself.
Bearing puller tool kit is like $300 bucks for a tool you wouldn't use that often.

The 3" looks perfect on the flow from the seat to tank, but I'm only going with a 2". I don't want as much plumbing showing under the tank.
