    Stumped on Roaring Noise

    So got it figured out. It was a combination between the left bearing that had been replaced now 3 times and the right front bearing going bad. Finally got both replaced today and the noise is gone. I tested the left front first before replacing the right. It cleared a little bit of the noise...

    Stumped on Roaring Noise

    I just bought the truck, The noise was not there initially. I did notice that the rears are feathered pretty bad which now makes me think they may have rotated them to keep it quiet. I had plans to replace front end parts to begin with just not this soon. Looks as though the elimination process...

    Stumped on Roaring Noise

    Would it make the roar of a bad bearing? I did a lot of reading and everyone seemed to have a different answer for the "roar". Plus the speed thing has me confused below 35 nothing 35 and above noise. I am even getting a pretty steady rumble sensation through the steering and even the gas pedal

    Stumped on Roaring Noise

    So my 99 A4WD has recently picked up a roaring noise in what sounds like to me the left front. I did the swerve test and when unloading pressure from the left side on a left hand turn the noise will quiet down or go away. When loading the left side on a right turn the noise really doesn't change...
