Yep, rent a sliding hammer and yank them out. Don't be surprised if one or both are very stuck and the inner comes out, spilling the bearings. Which leaves you with a solid outer race to grab.
Be carefull setting them back in straight. If they start crooked they can be a real challange to seat all the way in.

Remove the roller form bearing and leave the internal race alone, then use a standard electric arc welder to put some heat over the race DON'T touch the axle !!!
When it still very hot, put in some cold water, termic shock will expand the race, then should be free enough to be removed hitting softly over...
