One heavy duty C-clip on front axle and for bolts that hold the hub assy to front axle housing get new o-ring and you might try Rock Auto and get the motorcraft hub assy

The bearing is contained in a hub-bearing unit, sometimes called a Wheel Hub Assembly. Ford tech manual calls it a wheel hub. The bearings in these are pretty big and are not individually serviceable. You must replace the whole unit.

Remove bake caliper and caliper mounting bracket, and rotor. Remove locking hub, remove snap ring, remove four nuts, remove wheel hub.

I normally buy parts from Amazon.
