A quick search shows that the whole thing comes as a wheel hub assembly.

http://www.partsgeek.com/catalog/200..._assembly.html

I don't know if you can just replace the bearing. The DIY showed the guy replacing the whole wheel hub assembly. Did you notice that the whole assembly looked new after he did it? It was rusty before and now the whole thing is clean and not rusted. When the dealer fixed my car, they said there's no way to just replace the bearing. The whole wheel hub assembly would have to be replaced. Everything comes together as one.

From the OP of that DIY:

This is an entire wheel hub assembly. Not sure of the cost. I got mine at the stealership. There are some after-market ones too. It is self-contained and pre-lubed but it can be a real pain to DIY or very expensive to have the garage do this....

My goal was to document my lessons learned for the rest of us here...
Again, aftermarket prices for the assembly cost around $150 or more. You may have gotten the wrong part. However, let me know if it works. It's a pain to open the whole thing up and realize you can't replace it with just the bearing.

So I got the hub from advanced auto. Got home, it was the wrong one... For the 2wd. Returned it, advance auto didn't have the one for the x.
Called up AutoZone and they had one but it was 45 min away.

Drove to it, got it, it looked right. Got home took the car apart ( 22 min very easy job )

It ended up being the wrong part, axle splines don't fit... So I've got the car in pieces and no part to put in.

And yes the bearing is bad you can hear and feel it when rotated in my hand.
Anyone have a part number and a store I can go for the correct part

Mine does that as well. When im on the highway, curving to the left, it increases. Thanks, now I can get it fixed
