Replaced the brakes and rotors the axle oil is fine the bearings are fine everything else looks fine
Are the tires smooth or choppy as you look at the tread?
Run your hand along the tire tread,it should be smooth,no high or low spots.
High and low wear spots make a lot of noise on a tire.
Also,as you drive and hear the noise move the steering wheel slightly left and right,if you can change the noise at all then it may just be the wheel bearings.
Don't forget to make sure the metal inner dust shields beside the rotors are not touching anywhere on the rotors..
SOURCE: Grinding noise in the left
grinding on front wheel is caused by 2 things.
a bad or loose wheel bearing,or worn out brakes, have them both checked
You might also want to check the level of fluid in the power steering
reservoir - low or lack of fluid will also cause a noise (although more of a
whining than a grinding).
SOURCE: Rubbing or grinding noise coming from Driver side rear tire/wheel
I had the same problem that based on interner research is common for Fords trcuks/suvs. The common problem fro rear humming "rubbing"sound might be the rear wheel bearings/seal. These will need to be replaced as it will progressivly get worse and the noise louder and eventually the bearings can sieze. I would hesitate to take to a ford dealer if I were you as it can run $500-900. Take to mechanic that knows how to replace wheel bearings and seals. My mechanic replaced them for about $150. and the bearing and seals are around $40. A good way to test this is to raise the wheel were you can freely spin by hand...if does not spin or there is a lot of friction then it might be the wheel bearings.
Good Luck
SOURCE: Front end squeaking possible rotor rubbing something.
Have you checked the metal clips that olds the brake pads in the front galiper bracket. They usualy rust, break loose and come in contact whit the disc, creating a squeaking noise. Those should be replace since they are needed for the brakes to work properly
SOURCE: Hear a grinding noise from the right front wheel
You should definitely pull the front wheel and check the bearings (they are roller bearings, not ball bearings). With the wheel off, you should be able to isolate where the noise is coming from, but I vote for the bearings. Check, replace and/or repack, and adjust properly. If you have noise, you should be able to feel the "play" in the bearings, or see the wear problem on the spindle and bearings. I hope this helps you.
