I believe the 94 - 95 spindles have a wheel bearing that does not need a press to remove and replace a bad bearing. I think they have a retainer ring or c-clip to hold the bearing in place.

I am not sure if that allows you to replace the bearing without removing the spindle from the car, but someone on here will know.

no, the shop manual procedure is the same through 1995 for bearing removal and installation. 1993 has a snap ring still, requiring a replacement after discard. Both removal and installation needs bearing arbor press and special bearing spacer installer for bearing install, and also the hub pressed out of the bearing.

Just had the same with the dust shield rubbing against the brake rotor, a bit dented from various installations, removals, and replacements of the lower control arm, where the ball joint is wrapped tightly by the dust shield sheet metal.
