Default growling in front end of 02 f150 5.4l 4wd.

Quick question. My truck makes a growling noise while engaged in 4wd and in 2wd. I don't know if it would be wheel bearings or something else. I need new tires on it I just got and alignment done on it also. The growling was there before the alignment was done. If you have any ideas let me know. Thanks

It does it while im driving. Its a constant growling almost sounds like the tire is going down but its not. Thought it my be a u joint but everything os good there.

It ended up being my wheel bearings and hub assembly in the front passenger wheel.
