the wheel bearing is bad. it cost $50 for a new bearing. and a press to put it in and a special tool (free from me, if you need mine)
mine fits all sux 4x4 to 1998 , an not 97+ geo trackers.
steps and pitfalls

nut shell, see photo. above.
you remove part id 18 with the special tool (16/17 already off)
insert tool in to 18, and turn wrench CCW (150lbs of force, there)
and that is a NUT RING.
once off the whole bearing hub comes off.
the cone inside must be pressed off then new pressed in. ID20
