Default Wheel Hub Assembly

So I think my front wheel hub assembly is going bad. Because its making the wubba wubba wubba sound when i make turns. But I see that the going rate for a replacemnt is in excess of $150. I was wondering if any of you guys have a spare one sitting around or know a good place to get one for the s60 2.4l non turbo? Is it possible to just get the bearings and press them in myself. Thanks for the help.

Also is the hub pressed into the spindle? Or is it held on just by the end bolt? And what are the years of cross refrence and motor crossing, for example could I use the hub assembly from a 2004 s60 2.4t. hope this isn't too technical, buti'm sure someone knows.

Are you 100% sure it is the bearing and not the tires?

Yeah i thought it might be the tires at first myself. But i every tire even the spare made that noise up on just that corner. I've been looking around I'm going to purchase this used one for 50 bucks and try it out. I figure worse thing I at least will have a spare part if it doesn't work. Other than that the volvo rocks, except for that intermittent turn signal not working, then working depending on temperature.

Turn signal is either the Stalk is bad or one of the front Sockets for the Bulbs.

Its the front socket, i have tried dielectic grease (sp?) and that didn't work so i changed the sockets, switchedleft to right then the other side didn't work. I noticed it was made in France so i chocked it up to being French and the lack of wanting to comply with any one else from the EU.
