I have never worked in a JD machine, depending on the slack, you may just need shims to take up the play, but if it has been run likke that for a while new bearings will be needed.
On bobcat machines, you remove the axle from the chaincase, replace bearings and the seal and re-install the axle, yours will be close to the same deal.

Any idea on the exact steps to remove this hub? I can't seem to find a service manual on this thing anywhere. I am a novice car mechanic and I can drive anything, but servicing it is another deal.

There should be a bolt on the inside the chaincase that holds the sprocket on, this will have to come out to allow you to slide the axle/hub out.
Have you tried talking to your local dealer and see if they ahve any tips?

The 675b is actually a New Holland machine with a power plant supplied by Deere. Cant remember which machine crosses but Ill check and get back.

Same as an L555 might post on the New Holland forum. There is a nut on the axle in the chain case. Large inspection plate on the side of the chain case gives access to the parts. May be a small inspection plate to access the nut from the other side of the chain case. If you have the small inspection plate you may not need to remove the large plate. Not easy but not near as much of a pain as some of the BC machines.
