Humming in front end

Gradually getting louder. It stops when you turn left past a certain point. I thought it was the driver side wheel bearing and replaced it but it didn't fix the issue. Anybody had this problem before I go replacing the passenger side wheel bearing? Truck has new tires, all 4 ball joints, driver wheel bearing, and has been aligned.

wheel bearings are always the first good bet.

You could take it off the knuckle to see if it has any play in it. If the truck has over 100 grand on it, it may be a bad wheel bearing. I always replace them in pairs, because even if only one side is bad, they other side usually isn't to far behind.
