Hmm... I'm not technical, so I'll guess: Ball joint? Bump due to risk...

Wheel bearings, there should be no play in the wheels. Make sure it the hub moving and not he knuckle.

The hub is moving are wheel bearings hard to fix if not destroyed all ready please help hate to see the ex parked untill i fix this problem

i see there is a nut on the end of the hub could i tighten it or do i need to take appart to figure out whats wrong

The nut is a lock nut, unlikely to come lose. Of course if you put a socket on it you shouldn't be able to turn it. The rear hub bearings are pressed in, you need a big press to get them out. some remove the whole knuckle and take that in to a shop. It should come as a set bearing and hub for the rears.
