    I've been noticing a loud, metal grinding noise on right turns, during any speed. About 10k miles ago I replaced the wheel bearing,axle and diff sleeve. The problem popped up out of nowhere.

    Ive checked for rubbing and cant see anything out of the normal. If i jack up up the front and turn the wheels the noise isn't present. It seems there needs to be some sort of load on the wheel.
    I attached a video to help describe my issue. Ill apologize for some wind noise in advance, i didn't take that into consideration.

    Could be your breaks or a cv joint.

    It sounds like metalsheet for me.

    Look for 2 things, the front skidplate or there is a thin plate just back of your front brake disc.

    Hope it could help

    My first guess is the dust shield on the disc brakes rubbing or vibrating?

    Sounds like your tire is rubbing some sheetmetal.

    Guys, i figured it out.. the dust shield on the wheel was rubbing the back of the rotor VERY slightly. Quick little tap and the noise is gone.

    It was the dust shield for me on my 2017 also. I moved it away from my front right rotor slightly as a temporary fix. Looks like my rotor is scratched and rusting a bit. Thanks for the help.
