Well, it's there. I dropped it off a little before 2PM, service writer gave me a 90min estimate... it's been 2.5 hours so far. LOL. We'll see.

LOL, so they just called me. It's done.
I asked if everything went smoothly and their response was "well, not so smoothly, the old part didn't wanna move, but once we got it out, it was cool."

I'm heading to pick it up soon.

Watch me kill all of you.

Anyway. I have my car back, with a brand spanking new wheel bearing. Cost me nothing but my signature. The tech used an air hammer to remove the spacer.

Warranty work FTMFW!
