Thanks for the replies- I need to take the car for a ~350 mile journey in less than 48 hours so I ended up taking this to my local mechanic. This will be the first repair I haven't done myself :/ Don't have the time necessary nor the press. $700-800 for the single wheel out the door parts/labor. I feel like less of a man now!! (:

Deadeye-
I didn't notice the hub was loose, the job did go well into the night and the side in question was my second side, so I was moving much quicker in the work. I can't say that I really examined the hub much. The noise is similar to what Chuck W is describing, where it's not present at all times, only once things warm up. I believe it's just beginning to fail, if it were related to the ebrake I'd expect it present at all times. Thanks for the suggestions though.
