You are probably looking at about an hour per side. Brakes and backing plate must be removed. then the mounting bolts for the axle itself must be removed. this operation should be performed one side at a time in order to save the fluid inside the differential casing. It will become imperative that both oil seals are changed with the bearings. P.S. depending on the graciousness of the engineers, you may not have to remove the backing plates. Thank you, Dana

On a Mazda tribute can i just replace the whole hub assembly to fix a bad wheel bearing in the rear?

yes
you can get one from the wreckers/junk yards
probably cheaper as if you use bearings from mazda they will be 3 times the price as bearings from CBC or timken shops ( same bearings as mazda don't make bearings )
