2000 Excursion Whining noise from front ????

I just started hearing this whining sound coming from the front of my truck a week ago and it only lasted a second or two.. A few days ago I was driving and i did it a couple times, I thought it was coming from my left side tire but then we had the windows down and it seemed it was coming from both sides...So last night I went for a ride with windows open with air off, all the other times I believe the air was on. So I go to the store and no noise like a whine a high pitch whine but not a squeal like a belt...it is crazy because I thought a wheel bearing but its 4x4 and maybe something from both side or is it coming from Engine....Please help if you have any input...Thank you all!!!

how about the actual price.
$318 for Timken, unless you are selling it immediately you’d be nuts to use anything but.

Was the $690 job with a Timken bearing assembly? There are lots of cheaper unit bearings around and cheaper doesn't just refer to their price.

indeed, the issues is quality, if they didn't use a Timken bearing then even free is to much.
