Bronco's driver's side hub

Hi, I'm a first timer on four wheel drives.
I was told my driver's side hub is going to need to be replaced on my 90' Bronco.
Does this effect four wheel drive or two wheel?
Is it still drivable? Thanks.

I can't remember...is the hub on this year Bronco like the '85 I owned--shaped like a stove pipe hat, or is there a separate, factory-sealed bearing assembly like the newer IFS models? If it is the old hat-style, the bearings and races are greaseable and replaceable if that is the problem. However, if the rotor is shot, you'd be best replacing rotor/hub and bearings since they're probably toasted too. You don't want to be driving a vehicle with questionable wheel bearings or a damaged rotor because it ain't gonna fail in your driveway...more than likely far from home and in the driving rain.
