    All new wheel bearings ecgs bushing in front diff new center support bearing and ujoints. But I still have a growl that sounds just like a wheel bearing . starts around 15 mph and increases with your speed . had 2 different shops look at it and only 1 would admit he could hear it but not pin point it . any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    Did you press the bearings or buy the whole hub assembly? Could also be the tires? Just thoughts.

    Have you noticed whether the noise changes / goes away when taking sharp turns or swaying side to side?

    Very slightly not as noticeable as a wheel bearing though. The honest mechanic said he thinks front diff or transfer case but wasn't sure and said he hated to even tell me that because hes not sure.

    Have you had the rear differential checked?

    Get it up on jack stands and run the wheels while listening with a stethoscope. Put it right on the diff
