Need help with bad vibration in the front end
So ive had this vibration in the front end for a few months. Gets worse when i turn left on the interstate or whatever, so naturally you would think the front hubs, specifically the passenger side hub. Both hubs were new, pass side was 2 years old, drivers 1 year. Replaced the pass side hub, and its still there, same sound. So i figured it might be my front driveshaft since it wiggled a bit in the transfer case, pulled that all today and the grinding/vibration is still there. What else could it be?
Its gotta be the drivers side hub, or a cv axle. Its always there, gets worse when turning left at speed, and goes away with turning right (im talking a on ramp at 55 or such) and it gets louder with speed. Any ideas would be great..
thanks a bunch

Well like every one is saying have the tire and wheel checked out!!! Take it to a shop that deals with aftermarket wheels and knows about wheels. have them check the rim actually have them inspect it, make sure it sits on the hub snug! (if not then time for some new wheels, then check out the lug holes(make sure that they are still round and not fu*ked up, then make sure that he right lub nuts are being used or if you have the stock wheels throw them back on!
hope it helps been dealing with wheels for over 10+ years
