Don’t have room or time to change myself. I’m looking for someone to do it without going to dealership. I know they will charge an arm and leg.

Wheel bearings you can usually turn in and out of, wait for the sound and steer right and left and see if it goes away, you turn into a bad bearing. Rear end will be more howling sound kinda, speed dependent or just overall at all speeds?
