Take it to a motor repair shop. They have the presses, bearings and do
this professionally.

If price is controlling issue, **** can the whole shebang and buy
a 20" box fan at end of season price of about $10 from a big box
store and get a beer.

No one said it was the controlling issue. It's just a factor. Don't
see why you don't consider replacing bearings to be a suitable
address of the problem. They are meant to be replaced, after all...

If they are sleeve bearings, NBD.

If they are ball bearings, you really need an arbor press to avoid
brinelling
the bearings during installation.

$10 for a box fan is a far more simple solution.
