unhappy 99 Warrior Top End Help

So I tore apart my top end after hearing a slight knocking, wanted to nip it in the bud before it got bad. Turns out my rod bearings are bad. But how can I get this connecting rod off myself?!? Is it worth even trying?

You have to have a press and a jig to change the rod bearings. You are better off buying an aftermarket crank if you want to do the work yourself. HotRods makes a drop in stock replacement.

Think I'm gonna just get a hot rods stroker crank for it. I read that if I do I also need the hotrods piston. Is this true? If so, why? Thanks for the help
