I have a constant roar/grind noise coming from the front passenger wheel/tire. It is there going straight, turning left, and/or turning right. It is always there, but more I can hear it better at low speeds and accelerating from a stop and coming to a stop.
I have been chasing this rabbit for a while now. Here goes the list of the chase:
97 explorer sport, 2wd, 4.0 OHV 210k miles
Replaced upper control arm, upper and lower ball joint, inner and outer wheel bearings, brake disk, new ceramic brakes, caliper is in fine working order, knuckle looks good, shocks, and tires.
Lower control arm looks good, not bent or warped and the bushings look good.
The tie rod ends were replaced about 20 to 30k miles ago...I guess its possible they are bad.
Motor mounts all look good.
There is no play in the wheel at all, it doesnt budge. Tires are balanced, brakes wear evenly, ball joints seem to be ok, but the noise is still there and starting to wear on my mind.
Any ideas?
