Icon3 98 CR-V 4wd Rear Bearing Bad

Looking for some insight into repairing my CR-V. The right rear bearing is bad but im not sure if I should try just a bearing replacement or just do a whole hub assembly replacement. If I went the hub replacement route this would eliminate having to press the bearing in and out correct? Im also airing on the side of caution by replacing the whole hub in case the on in there is damaged from the bearing being bad right? Any insight or info would be appreciated.

I dont have tons of specialty tools but can rent some from auto zone if needed. Just wondering which way would be the easier route for a DIYer.

it looks like it's just a bolt on assembly so it should be fairly easy
