If it is the wheel bearing ! Personally I would do both at the same time, Peace of mind as probably the other bearing is worn also. You will require a good hydraulic press to remove the bearing. They can be a bit of a bugger.

Just been for a drive and after awhile I got a thumping type noise from underneath.
Nursed it home and felt the heat from the r/h rear.
Checked the other wheels,you could put your hand on the wheel.
I gather that the wheel bearing is kaput, so what is the best way to get it changed.
a) just the wheel bearing or
b) get complete knuckle
c) any other way of doing it.
Is it best to do both sides seeing as one has gone?
Who is best for getting the supplies locally(england is likely 2-3 weeks + to get here)
Any other hints, tips most welcome.
