Okay, so I go to make a run this morning and when going down the street and letting off the gas, i hear a grinding noise. I've heard this noise for a few days now and thought it was just my mud grips, this morning it became very pronounced... I went back home and jacked it up with all 4's off the ground and spun some tires, the first one I happened to spin was the front passenger and I heard the grinding, all others are good to go except for this one. I looked closer and from what I can tell without removing the tire is that it's a wheel bearing. It seems like I can hear the grinding at the top of the CV axle, but I don't know if it's just echoing from the wheel bearing. I haven't checked up and down, left and right yet to verify as I went inside to cool off from this hot, humid TX weather.
Can anyone one on here verify if it's the wheel bearing or if it could be something with the CV? Does anyone have a preferred and trusted brand of wheel bearing / hub assembly? I was going to buy Mopar, but would rather save a little bit.
Thanks in advance
