I have whirring noise in my truck that gets louder when I turn to the right, it also becomes more noticable when slowing down. It almost sounds like some off road tires we've all heard before. I don't have tires with agressive lugs, so I don't think that should be the cause? I replaced my old hubs (manual) with new ones thinking that could be the problem, with the outlook that one of the hubs are not fully dis-engaging. Needless to say, the noise it still there. It seems to pop up after driving for a distance as well. I've checked the bearings on both sides, they seem to be nice and tight with no signs of wear. Brakes are in good shape. It seems to be coming from the passenger side of the truck. Transmission is a standard.
Any input would be appreciated.

I just realized that I posted this in the wrong forum. This is on a stock Dana 35 axle
