    I'm going to change the brakes this weekend and see if the rotors are still good also. If so I'll just have them turned and check them out also"bearings". I don't have an issue doing the work I'm more concerned of chasing the problem. I'd rather find out what it is and tackle it.

    You'll have to replace the whole hub not just a bearing. Take the brakes off, 4 bolts and an a vacuum line, undo the cv shaft so you can slide the hub off. Reinstall new hub. 30 min job

    But is it a total assembly or just bearings?

    Complete hub assembly. No packing or anything or greasy mess like wheel bearings. I got mine at 1aAuto.com but I wouldn't recommend them, I think i have one slowly going out after 1.5 years.

    It's called a hub assembly. Bought one from napa a long time ago, no issues .

    Here ya go man, go about half way down. Raybestos hubs for $64 a piece on close out you won't find any cheaper I guarantee that
