Recently retired with time to spare and would like learn and do as much work as I can on our three vehicles. Before I tear the wheel apart can you tell me if this vehicle has a hub assembly with already installed wheel bearings or are they something I need to install separately? Thanks!

Thank you very much I appreciate it! I do have an additional question. I'm trying to remove a rusted on brake drum over the rear brakes on the 1997 T-100. Any tips would help. I've already doused around the lug holes with PB Blaster and tapped with a hammer. I wanted to try tapping the back edge out from behind but there is some kind of a dust cover with rounded edge circling and covering the back edge of the drum.
