It's the part that the wheel bolts onto and allows the brakes to stop the vehicle.

There is a picture one here.

Do you have to repack the wheel bearing on a 2004 Jeep Liberty if you replace the brake rotors?

No, you can remove and/or replace the front rotors on your Jeep Liberty without having to repack the wheel bearings. To remove the rotor, remove the brake caliper, and then pull the rotor straight off the wheel studs. If the rotor doesn't budge, then use an air hammer to tap the front face of the rotor adjacent to the wheel studs (the flat area of the rotor directly between the wheel studs). This will knock the rust loose and let the rotor slip off the studs. DO NOT use the air hammer on the braking [shiny] surface of the rotor!
