Bearing questions

Ok, here's the scenario:

95 ZJ

I have a growl from the front end that sounds like tires. I rotated the tires and the growl is still in the front end. I just replaced the brakes (while I was rotating the tires, saw they were about gone). I am figuring its a bearing going. I tried spinning the tires with the front end on stands and can't hear anything at all. When i hit a good bump on the road, it will go away for a second as the load is off the suspension.

I can see that the bearing assembly should be simple enough to remove. Is there also a bearing on the axle tube that I should be concerned with, or is it just the bearing assembly that un-bolts?

Any info or advice would be appreciated. I plan on taking it apart to replace the bearings on Sunday.
