Are you sure its the hub thats damaged? More likely to be the lateral links.

Lateral links are the bars that go from the hub towards the rear diff. There are two of them.

If your wheel has bent under the car and the hub is still atached to the wheel with the bolts, then i would have thought that all the suspension links would be bent and maybe the driveshaft too, make sure this gets fixed properly as wonky suspension could put you off the road again!!
