My 2002 ford Explorer is making a low pitch wobble sound when driving especially noticable when driving at a slow speed. The sound is almost unnoticable it sounds like its coming from the front drivers side. Any clues what it could be?

Description is a bit vague, wobble is usually a feel in the wheel? Back and forth shake? What noise? A growl, bang grind, maybe a squeak?

Sounds like a low pitch grinding or rubbing noise when driving and making turns. It's low pitch not squeaking or loud. The noise just started recently. But its more noticable when driving at a slower speed. The car drives fine no shaking or wobbling no squeaks. The sound is constant only when driving braking is ok too.

Ay be a hub bearing, it might not be bad enough for replacement yet, but may have enough play to be diagnosed. If growl gets wors on right turns, check left bearing! And vice versa.
