02 drive train noise.

I have an 02 Eddie Bauer V8 AWD that is making a ticking noise at low speeds ( under 10mph ) on the pass. side
It sounds like a rock in a hubcap noise.
I have pulled the wheels and checked the CV boots and they are fine.

Any ideas ?

Did you check the tire tread for stones or a nail or something?

I just had new tires put on.
The noise was there before and after the new tires.

My best guess is a wheel bearing. A bad one does not always whine, and at low speeds they make a sound like you are describing. It could also be a dragging brake caliper. Hopefully it's not in the driveline.
