Whining noise

Hey all-I have whining noise (like the sound an old screen door would make swinging back and forth) coming from the right side of my F250 super duty truck. My truck is a 2003 with 95k on the 7.3 motor. The whining happens, or is heard, when I get above 15 mph. The frequency or pitch of the whining does not change with speed. I can hear it when accelerating, coasting, braking, and not braking. An ideas would be appreciated.
