So the wheel bearing was bad after all for my celi's front passenger wheel. Anyways I thought a good new wheel bearing would do the trick, but as it turns out the hub was worn down to the core.
So ordering a new hub from toyota is gonna cost $125 after taxes and the bearing $45 and the mechanic who helped me tap out the old and put in the new $25. so after an alignment too = $45 the total comes out close to $250 for fixing the wheel bearing.....So long for a 3-point brace. Anyways it sucks not to drive the celi, and driving the camry just doesn't feel the same when your missing the 4age power and driving without P/S. I was driving around the corners with the camry, and I was like "Whoah! It felt like driving a boat" Seems like the celi will be out untill Tuesday when I get a new bolt to retain the lower ball joint, cause I over threaded it upon removal.. Stupid me!  Gonna have to miss showing off the celi at new years eve.
