Thank you, I'm thinking the same thing now. When I move the hub around I can see the front of the wheel bearing moving with the hub.
When I crashed the car, all the wheel bearings, rotors, and pads were changed a month before. when I put on the used hub carrier I bought, the bearing looked fine. I kept the broken hub carrier for a few months just in case I need the bearing. But I sold my other car and got a larger car and needed to clean out the garage some. I tossed the old hub carrier in the garbage.
Oh well, tomorrow I'll take it all apart to see what I need.
So far, a bearing, rotor, brake pads, axle nut, maybe the axle shaft since it had play in it anyways. I'm hoping not much more than that.
Thanks again.
