Default Noise from drivers rear wheel

I think I have a bad wheel bearing. When I am driving, the slightest turn causes noise to come from the driver's rear wheel. It does not make noise going straight. If I am correct, I need to buy 1 611931 and replace? Is the 6004 bearing that much better?

The steps:
Remove the drum/hub
Remove the snap ring
Pull the bearing
Remove 2nd snap ring
Remove the seal

What oil or grease do I need to replace the bearings? I am fairly competent but have not done this work before.

Does that mean you agree that I have a bad wheel bearing?

with out hearing the noise it is hard to tell
first i would pull the hub and inspect the brakes , make sure there is no spring rub
if brakes are not the cause then it would be the bearings

Once I pull the hub, will it be obvious what spring rub is?

Thank you for all the help. It was the bearing. Once I got it replaced it it was running so quiet and smooth I could now hear the noise from the other rear bearing. Now I have both replaced and she's running swell. Thank you all for your help.
