Welp, the hub bearing replacement at Doug's Muffler this morning went great! $184.20 was the total. $70 parts/$110 labor + $4.20 tax.
They tried getting the hub and axle apart to get at the bearing w/out taking off the knuckle, but it wouldn't budge. So they ended up taking off the knuckle and then taking it across the street to some parts store with a press. Took a few hours. I believe they put on some anti-seize on the teeth of the axle and hub so this won't be such a pain if ever I need a new hub bearing in the furture. Best part; no more vibration/noise!
I was talking to Doug and apparently I just missed Stazi the day before getting some exhaust work done.
