Exclamation 9" Rear End Help Needed!

I was told that the rear axle bearings on my shortened 9" Ford rear need attention.
The car gives off a "crunch/grind" sound when moving forward, even wit the engine off and in neutral.
So, is this something that a beginner/novice mechanic such as myself, can do at home with some tools or should I cart it over to the closest rear end shop on Monday?
I need this car by Thursday for a local show and I've never tried this type of job before.
I'd like to learn, but don't want to open up a can of worms, if this job is deemed difficult by one of you with experience.

PLEASE CHIME IN. I NEED ADVICE! Especially before I take the path of no return.
