it still makes noise with hubs locked, it almost sounds like tire rubbing but there are no marks on tire or anyware else on truck. truck has 120,000 miles. have had nothing but the passenger side bearings replaced on it. makes no noise going straight or right hand turns.
Hook it, I'll pull it.

Can you pinpoint which side the noise is coming from? How is your power steering fluid? Does it look like ATF?

I'd jack up the front side that is clunking, use jackstands, get under there and rock tire back and forth, and see if the u-joint has slip in it, or see if anything else seems bad. heck man, if it wasn't you that put on the wheel, check the lug nuts too.

Grinding noise
I just had one of my 2wd F350 duallys' rebuilt and I have the same grinding noise on the right front - kinda sounds like a tire rubbing when I turn to the right, no matter how sharp or dull. I have been baffled by this for almost a year and several thousand miles. Have been pulling horses and everything else and I have had no problems but something is not right! If you find something out I would be anxious to know.
