Wheel Hub / Hub Bearings

[John Blaze]

Ok here is the situation. I have a GS300 with some front end suspension issue's.

The first issue is, when I drive there is a grinding like vibration on the right (front passenger side) however when I turn to the right the vibration goes away. I explianed this to a mechanic via telephone and his immediate answer was "My Hub Bearings" needed to be replaced. Does anyone have any idea if this is an easy task or does anyone have any photos or diagrams for the DIY guy.

Second issue, When i go over a bump the ride is not smoothe it feels like metal to metal and I also hear a clanking sound. does this mean that my rubber bushings in the upper and lower control arms are warn? If so where can i pruchase them for reasonable price? I live in Philadelphia PA or Online purchase will do. Are they easy to replace? Do i need any special tools?
