2001 Front Spindle knuckles

Okay , had a new motor put in, got the truck back, I admit the truck sat for a little bit. Now I have a grinding noise of sorts coming out of the driver's side front. It flip on the fly 4x4. Will a manual spindle hub work inplace of flip on the fly hub/spindle?

Is everything moving properly? Brake slide plins free? Rotors clean and rust free? Uni-bearing have and wobble?

Start with those and if nothing remove the uni-bearing and check the needle bearing that rides on the stub shaft.

Check the link below to see how to remove and replace.

Everything from what I can see is working like it should. I can not let the grinding / metal rubbing noise go.
