A block of wood is a safe bet. Yozalo, another way to install bearings is to start with a long piece of threaded rod (often called redi-rod) that will fit loosely inside the bearing. Find some flat washers that will cover most of the surface of the bearings, spin a nut on either side, and slowly tighten the nuts. You'll find that the bearings will eventually be pressed into place without hammering.
Cheers!
