I've posted before about a noise that occurs when i take right hand turns, I haven't noticed it while driving faster like 35-40 mph or whatever, mainly i hear it when under 10 mph and taking a turn. It used to be purely on right hand turns but now it is doing it while going straight over bumps as well. It's an intermittent grinding that sounds rotational. If i lock the hubs it goes away and when i unlock them it stays away for a little bit, same thing if i pull it into 4wd. But it sure enough comes back eventually.
What's new is i pulled the hub apart and the clutch etc. is fine however this is where i've isolated the noise to, what is in there that would make this noise?

Sounds like your wheel bearing is crapping out on you

There is a dust seal and the wheel bearing in that area. Remove the axle from the hub and inspect the wheel bearing.

only thing i could think of would be the wheel bearing

the thing is though, i checked for up and down play and there was none whatsoever, i guess though it is possible, i pulled some dry grass and a twig out of there lol.
