No, I don't notice and misting or leaks from the rear shocks. What I do notice is some fresh looking rust on the inside of the rotor. I would think a wheel bearing would be very noticeable. I can take off the rotor tomorrow and have a looksie.

On the picture, you can see the upper portion of the inner fender liner where the tire rubbed on the hard bump. You can also see on the inside of the rotor shield some fresh looking rust...I never seen it before.

My springs there I also checked to see if any of the coils broke and couldn't see anything broke.
