Alignment Needed For Front Wheel Bearing Repalcement?

My first post here! I have a '07-Runner, V6 Trail Edition that sounds like the front wheel hub needs replaced (slight grinding noise at low speeds and in low speed turns.) I took it to the only local Toyota dealer with a so-so reputation and of course I need the bearing, along with tires, blinker fluid and cat scan...HA! Anyway I was talking to a reliable reputable mechanic I know said he didn't think an alignment was needed. However he suggested the dealer do the work of bearing replacement. It doesn't pull or have any uneven tire wear. Does anyone know if I need the alignment? Thanks!

I wouldn't think an alignment was required either.
But the blinker fluid and winter air for your tires is a must.
