ive been hearing this mud tire like noise, and i can even feel a small vibration coming from the drivers side wheel, when i make a left turn takes the weight of that side(drivers side) it goes away, as the weight comes back from the turn the noise is back, i thought it was the hub so i replaced the hub, same noise. i do have bfg's on all terrain, the tires are not it i always had same type of tire, by the way this happens at about 20+ mph. and gets noisier as you go faster. ive also check the 4wd locking hub and seems to be in good condition, i don't know what else it could be. please help if you had similar problems.

Have you had the alignment checked. Done a Tire rotation. I'll almost bet it's a tire alignment problem.
