Parts list request for rear wheel bearing replacement

I plan to replace the rear passenger side wheel bearings on my '04 V8 sport and I'm wondering if anyone here who has replaced their rear wheel bearings before if they could kindly post a parts list for all the bearings, seals, retaining clips etc.
Halfway into doing things like this I usually find I missed buying something and have to stop until I get it.
It would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Thanks, that seems to be what I'm looking for. I found everything but the bearing at toyotapartsdeals for cheaper. I found the bearing on Amazon but I'm confused about this. It's shown as a Bearing and Hub Assembly-I thought I just needed a bearing. What's more when you scroll down the Amazon page to where it say's "Frequently bought together" they list a bearing module.
At this point I'm uncertain if I need a Bearing and Hub Assembly, a "module" instead of just a bearing but I'll keep looking into this.
This is the part I'm talking about:

I also plan on getting this to use on my HF 20 ton shop press:

UPDATE: Apparently, the bearing puller I listed won't work. It can only be used on symmetrical 4-bolt circles which this bearing is not. Back to my search.

I think they replaced that module with the bearing when the shop did mine. Apparently it is a booger to pound out on your own and back in. I gladly paid the $75 plus bearing cost for the 1 hour labor to just let them have my axle for an hour.
 
I did both bearings on my 07 FJC and on my 99 T4R and the axles are very different. The tool for the FJC would not fit in my harbor freight press. The cross bars are too close together and the tool would not fit between them. I had a friend with a machine shop and they used a 50 ton press. The gauge in the press showed 14 tons before the bearing would release.

I used this tool
Amazon.com: Bestauto Rear Axle Shaft Bearing Puller for Toyota Trucks (1984/2018) 09521-25011-0: Automotive

This is the tool you want. The bearing bolt pattern is trapezoidal

You only need the bearing, seal and new retainer. I used my old retainer and flipped around so the bevel was oriented toward the wheel. It gave the seal a new surface to ride on. The other parts are reused.

Post 12 shows the orientation of the washer between the bearing and retainer.
