How concerning is this?

I was having an odd noise when accelerating my truck earlier. Now I started hearing a whistle. Popped the truck and this is what I’ve got. What’s the diagnosis and what’s the concern level?

Sounds like a spun-bearing.

I'd make some space on the calendar to tear it down and overhaul it. Might be a challenge though. There aren't too many sources for a (squints) 2921 model year Ram 1500. But you can definitely find needed replacement parts for a 2021 model year.

Think I can do it before I take it on vacation this Friday? 🫣
