06 silverado making bad grinding noise when driving Sign In

Making really bad grinding noise when driving slow, gets worse when turning left. Definetly coming from drivers side front wheel. I already replaced the wheel bearing and hub assembly and still making the sound. Break pads and rotor looked fine. Help!

If it gets worse when you turn left I would be looking ar the right side wheel bearing. Sounds can be very deceiving.

I assume you've already made sure the backing plates are not touching the rotor.

Just did one last week (another type vehicle - same issue/style) at least driving it myself took the right guess which side. That's real it can sound like the other side, rarely both at once so fast you notice IMO no need to do both (can argue that) unless cause was underwater meaning hub submersed while warm sucks in water, problem starts after that usually within a few months or so? Hard to tell till it does that, Tom

PS: Beware of new not all stay good for long can't tell new are too sticky, used spin free if you had to take one out,
