Please someone help me

alright guys. one of my wheel studs broke off on my front driver side. i've been told i need to replace the wheel bearing when you replace the wheel studs. i've checked with all my local junkyards and havent had any luck finding a wheel hub assembly because this would be the easiest, fastest, and cheapest way of doing this right? so i was hoping that someone could find one in a local junkyard?

someone please help me out here.

You could get a new bearing for MSRP $50-70 studs for $4-6 (less online) and put new studs in the old hub. I would replace all 4 at the same time IMO.

no you dont need to replace the bearing when you do it. I have had my hub off several times to replace broken studs, and still have the original bearing on.
