I have a 1996 Taurus that makes a grinding sound during right hand turns at Highway speed, it is present at slower speeds, but is subtle; it can also be felt in the steering wheel. I have changed the right hand wheel bearing assemble, but the noise is still present.
I do not hear any knocking or clicking with tight turns as a CV joint would make and the boots are not torn.
Any help is very much appreciated.

Check the integrity of your engine and transaxle mounts.

have you ruled out the left wheel bearing?....as you turn right the left bearing is loaded and will growl at speed when bad.

Thank you for the suggestions. I'll check the engine and transaxle mounts and left wheel bearing.

I changed the left side wheel bearing assembly and that fixed the noise.
Thanks for all of the assistance
