Default replace hub assembly or cv shaft??? HELP!

so for a couple days here i had a screeching coming from my front end that sounded like the brakes, after looking and looking i just couldnt find the problem, until today. i was driving along and had a loud bang then got a clunking sound while driving that doesnt go away unless i turn. no wobbling in the tire, slight shake at 75mph otherwise still rides fine, lost my 4wd after this broke also. attached are pics of the passenger side thats broke and the driverside tahts good. do i need to replace the whole hub assembly or cv shaft or what am i looking at here? you can see that the brake line piece is broken too, have a abs and parking brake light on, on my dash.. ideas?

Yer wheel bearing is bad and looks like it messed up your 4 wheel drive vacuum actuator that bolts on the back side of yer knuckel thas what that ring came off thats hanging on yer axle. The abs sensor comes on a new wheel bearing and comes with the hub. You will also need the vacuum actuator and you should be good those four big bolts hold in the hub/bearing. There pretty easy to do to. Just hollar if you got any questtions.

Good rescue Bubba! It sucks that this happened but at least it's not a very difficult fix.

No problem. It's all I do everyday all day. Id be suspicious of the wheel bearing being bad or just be ok with replacing the 4x4 actuator on my truck but at the shop id sell the whole thing just to make sure. At the house do it right the first time
