Well depending on the noise. If it makes a squeel, chatter, or grind thats the brakes. If it makes a nasty THUNK if you stop or accel hard or sometimes while your turning then I would say the ball joints. Changing them on a f150 is a pretty easy task either way.

Driver side front is making a noise on my 2003 honda pilot
Although "making a noise is a little vague" and you changed the bearings I assume the noise is rotational and changes with speed.
Only 2 months ago I had the same problem which I found to be the brake rotors. Examining them with the wheel off I could see the build up of rust on the outer diameter touched the brake calipers The cure, take a small hammer and bang the rust off, note the rotors were only a year old but I do live in the rust belt.

2006 ford focus front end noise stops when applying brake
saw your other post and thought you just let it go for 2 years.
did they change the rotors? an imperfection in the rotor can cause it to make a noise, you would think that the first mechanic would have changed out the rotors and pads to rule it out, i doubt it would be the caliper because it is not close enough, did they check the bearing and axle?

How to change hub on four wheel drive 1997 blazer
You'll need to remove the caliper and rotor, remove the axleshaft nut, disconnect the ABS sensor wire. Remove the nut holding on the tierod, and disconnect the tierod end, a Pickle Fork will help remove the tierod end and seperating the ball joints. Remove the upper and lower balljoint cotter pins and nuts, seperate the upper and lower balljoints and remove the spindle. The hub is bolted to the spindle from the back with 3 bolts. You maybe need to have the hub pressed out.

I have a 2001 dakota do I have to change the lower control arm to change the ball joint??
No you don't have to change the lower control arm to install a new balljoint.These balljoints come riveted in at the factory, you must grind the rivets then drive them through with a drift punch then they pull out....Then you can install new balljoints.I hope I could help...

A lot of noise from the front brake discs
Try changing the type of brake pads you are using. It will make a difference on the noise and all of the dirty brake dust that gets on the rims.
