Hey guys, My Explorer has 208,x.. on it and wheel bearing noise started coming from the drivers front a while back. Finally got around to changing it and took it for a drive. The noise is still there. It changes pitch while taking on curves on the freeway or barely putting tension on the steering wheel in either direction. I replaced the original with a Timken, removed all corrosion and cleaned everything well.
It is clearly from the front left. I can stick my head out the window while driving slow and hear it. Any suggestions? CV Axle? Bearing in the front diff?
Any one else out there in Explorer land come across this?
Thanks guys
EDIT: Tires were replaced with 265/70/17 Duratracs in November. They have ~4000 miles on them.
