I put a new passenger side hub on in August.. it's just failed... so, I replaced both hubs and both front rotors and pads at the same time tonight...all new parts.

put it all back together again and the damn thing still vibrates like a pig and makes the same noise as before when the hub was making a thrumming noise..

What else could cause this horrible noise?

My GF thinks the rear diff is howling.. but, I can't hear anything at the back, I think it's all coming from the front...

any suggestions would be great.. I'm going to check the fluid levels tomorrow, it's been a long day...

Forgot to mention that the upper/lower and outer tie rod ends all need to be replaced soon too...
 






Have you ruled out the u-joints or drive shafts?
 












Well, turns out the rearmost U-Joint is completely trashed... so after 2 new shafts, 2 hubs and a brake job, it's now vibration free...
