I'd just take the axles as they are to a diff joint, and get them to do the whole job - remove bearings, identify them, supply new ones (along with seals), and re-fit. Easy, done, no stuffing around, or second guessing! They do it every day.
You could try someone like Trans Diff in Baysy - or Supa Trik in Dandy, but then you have to travel.
If you do decide to buy them yourself - I'd use Bearing Wholesalers as previously mentioned.

Well, I FINALLY got my wheel bearings done!
Thanks for everybodies Help! They were Holden Wheel Bearings as people suggested.
I went down to Bearing Wholesalers like Ryan suggested. And they were bloody fantastic! I HIGHLY Reccomend people to go to them for their bearing needs!
Not only were they cheaper than Autobahn and the like. When i asked where i can get the new bearings pressed. The guy said i was more than welcome to use their bearing Press out the back! I said i didnt know how to do it. And he said, "No Worries mate, I'll teach ya!"
So he showed me how to remove and fit new bearings for Free! So the least i can do is tell all you guys to go there for any bearings you need!
Now i just have to fix my Buggering Uni Joint (GRRRRRR) and i can finally get the car out again! WOOHOOO!!!
