Default Rotor/spindle issue

So I'm having the problem and I am unsure of what exactly needs to be replaced. I have the rotor secured to the spindle on the front knuckle and I can wobble the rotor and hub by pressing on one end of the rotor and back on the opposite end of the rotor. Perhaps its the bearing... any suggestions on what is wrong and what needs to be replaced?

Just the rotor wobbles or the whole hub? Put the little screws in the rotor, then put the wheel on and try it. Does it wobble up and down or side to side?

That would be a bad wheel bearing. Sucks because shops charge hella $ to get that **** pressed in and out.

The whole hub wobbles... side to side, up and down, every-which-way like a quarter inch when looking at the rotor.

the rack-and-pinion is fine, just the hub and secured rotor wobbles... guessing its the bearing and or knuckle
