Suspension problem #1

Ay highway speed felt vigorous vibration throughout out my 2001 GMC hd 2500 4x4 as I slowed down it got worse next thing I heard was a loud crunch and banging and a puff of smoke, the truck fish tailed side to side (due to the tire still being inflated,it did not lose air pressure) and I corrected it to safely stop . What had happened was I lost the tread off the rear drivers side tire, causing severe damage to the wheel well and fender and exhaust.

Front Suspension Wheel Bearing problem #2

Abs light is on and wheel bearings are bad. Which I have to replace the complete hub assembly at a cost of $375. 00 per side and the truck only has 31,543 miles on it. The replacement is supposed to have been changed to fix the problem.
