I need to replace a wheel bearing on my driverside wheel, I need to know if I have to buy the whole hub assembly or can I just buy a wheel bearing?

you didn't specify if it was for the front or the rear of the truck. I assume it is the front. And to answer your question, the front wheel bearing are "Sealed" units that require replacement of the entire hub. If it is the rear, it is an individual bearing that can be purchases.
