1998 Dodge 1500 rubbing clanking noise

[98gpking]

my dads got a 1998 dodge ram pickup 1500 with the 5.2L engine its the short bed regular cab no back seats or anything. small little truck.

for about 6 months now hes been complaining about some weird noise. its seems to be a constant rubbing knocking noise coming from the front end. when he takes a turn regardless the speed or angle of the turn it seems to get louder. it dosent speed up or slow down just a constant noise. any ideas. sorry about the blunt description its hard to describe a noise haha
