I finally figured out that the bearing/wheel hub is on its last leg and had the cv joints looked at and they said its the wheel hub,and he would change both for 350.The hubs are not bent at all,I put the front end off the ground and made my wife shift through the gears and you could hear the bearings.

So should I play it safe and replace the whole hub(which might be overkill,or easier I dont know) or just replace the bearings for 60 bucks?

 

It is easier to replace the whole hub. BUT its less expensive to do just bearing. I had to do this on my 95 Mazda Protege. I obtained the parts at the wrecking yards. Pulled them out myself. I just got the entire hub $30 each. Cause the bearing require a press machine to remove. 1/2 hour labor. So it was better off for me to do it this way.

BUT for your case. If you dont work on your own car. Its better to do JUST the bearing. You dont need to buy the whole thing. You can expect 1 hour labor (at least) for each side. PLUS 1/2 hour labor to replace the bearing. totalling 3 hours labor + the bearings (I seen around $40 each). So maybe about $150 each side
