I replaced the left front bearings and seals a couple of months back. It is not a problem but be careful as you dismantle the system and of course the reassembly of same. Be sure to replace all bearings and seals as you probably don't want to do this job twice at the cost of parts. No special tricks and relatively easy job.
If the noise only happens when you are moving, and it changes with the speed of the truck, its something that is connected to the wheels. Road speed does not affect suspension noises like ball joints and spindles. So it would be something like the brakes, axle joints or bearings, or something in the differential where the axles come together. If the truck is 4wd you have front hub bearings behind the brake rotors, and regular bearings if it is 2wd.
It sounds like you may have a wheel hub bearing going bad . Jack up front of truck and spin each tire and listen for any noise it should be quite and spinfree if you find it's bad you must replace the whole hub you can't just repair the bearing this is a common problem on the f250

If it is a 2 wheel drive, it is probably your wheel bearings. If it a four wheel drive, it could be the front differential, the joints on the axle shafts, the locking hubs, or the wheel bearings. On the four wheel drive, crawl under the vehicle and grab the axle shafts and see where the excess movement is. Also try grabbing the tires and see if there is any movement. There shouldn't be any movement while the wheels are on the ground.
