    Did you tighten the wheel correctly? That could be the noise

    yes I'm thinking its the front wheel bearing because I had that guy hit me on the right side and I had to bend the front bumper off the tire so I could drive the truck. they fixed it and I just may have just heard the sound after the brake job.

    In my experience, noise that changes when turning like you describe is a wheel bearing.

    Nice looking brakes!

    You can buy bolt on wheel bearing & hub assemblys pretty cheap. Pretty simple job on a prerunner, there's a few DIY threads here.

    I’m just having them do it. They already have it and it’s apart. It will have a 1 year warranty

    For that price I would not consider yourself lucky. A less than $200 part put in for 705.00 I'm thinking they are lucky.

    the Total parts was 425.49. Labor was 345.69 so I’m still happy I couldn’t have done it
