Hi guys,

New member here and first time posting. I been searching throughout the forum trying to find the specific problem that I am having with my 03 GMC Yukon and not really finding it. Everytime I drive there seems to be a rubbing like sound coming from the front driver side area (like around the wheel area). The faster I go the faster the sound is as if there was something on the tire rubbing the wheel well or something. I did notice that it goes away when I turn right and is constant when I drive straight or turn left. Hopefully you guys can help.

From what you describe you have a bad hub bearing. Depending on how many miles your yukon has if it were me i`d change both sides because when one side goes the other isn`t far behind.

If you can change it yourself don`t go for a cheap no name brand bearing, Spend the extra cash on a timken or other good brand.
