Front wheels noise

I just bought a 2000 f250 7.3 for 10k it was the best deal i think ive ever gotten. its fully loaded and and xlt. i am just wokring out some small bugs right now.

what i am focusing on now is the front of the trucks seems to produce and noise like a stick is dragging. i turn the truck off and leave it in nutral and the truck is coasting. still makes the noise. i think it is the u joints going into the wheels. i greased all the bearings yesterday, and went on trip today, still had the same nosie.

any thoughts?

Greased all which bearings? Did you jack it up and shake the wheel at 12 oclock? The U-joints don't turn unless you are in 4WD.
