Noise From Front While Driving
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WgJUaB_7dF0
Any ideas? Occurs constantly (straight, turning wheel, braking, in gear or neutral). Most notable around 30-40mph. Sounds like a mild intermittent brushing/rubbing sound that varies with speed of vehicle. Sounds like it's from the front left. Not sure if it was doing it prior, but I did just replace the lower control arms which involved removing the axle. Cannot hear with windows up.
Checks that have been done:
Brakes - pulled pads, lubed and re-assembled.
Tapped on rotors and no rocks were dis-lodged.
Dust shield is not bent.
Axle nut torque checked (217 #).
Confirmed that new LCA bolts torqued properly.
No bearing play.
Fender liner is not loose.
Tightened end link.
Not a clicking sound (i.e. CV joint).
Sounds normal when spin wheel while in the air.
Tested with different wheel/tire.
