Is it in the front or the rear?
Front - take to shop, bearing needs pressed out/in.
Rear - cake, if you have rear disc brakes, never done one with drums.

Front. Passenger I believe. Saw a vid on youtube that said it may require a 'slide hammer'. I really don't want to go to a shop to have this done

I think I had both bearings purchased for... 110? Canadian though. If you know how to change your break callipers yourself, you can diy. Takes quite a bit of torque to get the **** off though

Well I'm planning on attempting this on Friday. Grabbing a Haynes manual because they're amazing. Being a broke college student sucks, so avoiding the shop's labor costs would be favored. But if this job isn't really something I should be doing, let me know guys. I don't wanna bite off more than i can chew.

Unless you have access to a press or something to get the bearing out, take it to a shop. Or just take the knuckle off and take it to them.

I went to a friend's house, he helped me out big time and we got it done. Removed the knuckle, took it to a buddy's shop, had him press out the old ones and put in the new ones. Also replaced my lower driver ball joint
No more noise, back to normal!!!!!

Thanks to all of you who helped me diagnose the problem!!!!! I truly appreciate the help big time.
Seriously, you guys saved me money from going to a shop, having them figure out the problem, and the labor and parts costs. Thanks so much for everything. I really do love you guys lol. (no homo) I'm so happy to be a part of this community, and it's helped me slowly transform my car into something I love. Still a work in progress, but still love lol.
Thanks once again, family of 6GA.com.
