Welcome to the forum..

Have you considered using a stethoscope or a ChassisEar to isolate the origin of the noise??

It's not in the engine, it is coming from the Drivers side front. Started about 3 weeks after changing the hubs and axles. Maybe a bad replacement?

Have you checked the install for for something that came loose (maybe a bolt that came loose or a caliper slide pin, if applicable)?

It might help if you posted what year Explorer you have.
