Drivers side rear got really hot after a short drive. Brakes seem fine, parking brake is off. Seems like a wheel bearing? Are the rears the same process as the fronts? I found a tutorial for those.
TIA

I'd lean on your brakes must be sticky/stuck causing wheels to go hot, not the bearings.

The more I read the more it looks like a bad caliper. Possibly parking brake but since it is only one side probably the caliper.

You sure its not just a seized up caliper pin? I would start there before trying to replace the whole caliper.
How did you notice it was getting hot?

Ended up being the caliper.
Wife walked by and felt the heat after just a 5 mile drive.
