Ok guys, just wanna make sure of this! I have been hearing a humming/roaring noise going down the road on my 04 F150! Its sounds like I have mudd grips and the sound varies with speed! Most guys say this is the bearings in the front rotors and it all comes as one unit( buying new rotors) Will bad bearings make this noise cause I pulled the front wheels this weekend and didn't feel any play in the rotors or didnt hear the noise when I spun the rotors, but the noise is still present! Just wanted to make sure before I spend the $$$ on new rotors, don't know what else it could be, maybe its because they are dry and the grease has seaped out of them?! Thanks for the help!

I had the same problem around 80,000 and replaced the wheel hub assembly on the passenger side. Fixed it right up.. then the Drivers side went around 100,00. Pretty simple fix. I did it myself in about 45 mins. I couldn't feel any play in the wheel nor did it make any noise spinning it by hand. Hope this helps.

does your 4x4 work? sounds like the IWE is spinning

Thanks to "those" who actually had answers to my question! Guess I forgot to mention mine is 2WD so no 4X4 here, I have seen that the guys with 4WD have had the prob and its a hub assembly.

I was thinking IWE but since it is 2WD it is probably the wheel bearings.
