Default ball bearings going out? new ones?

yeah so wheels whine when turning hard it's probably the bearings they've been whining so im pretty sure there's no greasing them so i'm getting some new ones. anyone know where i can get some new ones and can i install them myself?

4wd or 2wd? if its 4wd, it'll probably be your wheel bearings. i believe 2wd have ball bearings. correct me if i'm wrong. 4wd wheel bearings will usually run you about 180-200 per side i believe. idk about ball bearings, never had them before.

you should be able to install them yourself and get some at your local auto parts store i would imagine. if you have a haynes manual, that will do wonders. pretty much will probably tell you step by step how to do it. lol
