In addition to hub bearing, you may find that you need a Speedi Sleeve on
the axle stub, and buy new nuts and lock tabs for the hub while you're at
it.

Chuck:  I don't profess to be an expert on this, but I don't recall any
perceptible play when I changed my rear bearings on the '69.  I changed mine
because I was chasing down a mysterious noise.  It was easy to do.  I'm not
at
all sure that my bearings needed replacing.  I still have the noise, but I
ignore
it now.
