- '96 Eddie Bauer
My '96 4.0L Eddie Bauer with 4wdAuto has a continuous hum or whine from the front end at all speeds and down to almost 0mph. Don't think it's the tires as I can hear them separately and they change sound as the pavement changes. Put in a new right front wheel bearing for a different noise but think the left bearing is OK. The front drive shaft turns all the time but I guess that's normal. Noise has stayed the same since I purchased at 84,000mi (now has 120,000mi). How does one find out whether it is the CV joints, front axle, front driveline or something else? Any ideas?
