I was told by Les Schwab that I needed a right rear hub assembly. They quoted me a price that is so expensive. So, I called around to another mechanic and they said that the hub assembly is the wheel bearing. Is this true? I have a 1996 Toyota Camry wagon with non ABS. I am wondering if the hub assembly is the same as the wheel bearing?
