Right front bearing hub replaced.
On checking the rear brakes the shoes were very worn and the cylinders have been seeping brake fluid.
Everything was ordered and has now been replaced.
My truck now is rolling free and stopping fast. Best thing is the fuel economy is back.
Once again, thanks guys.

Sometime in the near future, I'd replace the left wheel bearing. That way you know when they were done.
