well I heard some noise from the front tires. I decided to change all the wheel bearings.
After brand new bearings. the noise sounds pretty much the same.

the tires have a ton of tread left and are not very old.


Any suggestions?

If its 4x4 it could be the cv shaft

What was the condition of the bearing when you replaced them? If they were bad or getting bad it could have changed the wheel alignment slightly making the tires choppy.

If you have replaced the tires recently (Within 8K miles or so) or rotated them often then you could try bringing the rear tires straight to the front cross the fronts and put them on the back without including the spare. if the noise continues it may just be the tires or possibly something Ive forgot to mention.

Information on the truck such as Year, model, mileage, 2x4 or 4x4, if you have lifted the truck, and type of tires will help a lot.
