Jake, the noise does get a little quieter on right turns.  The
bearings on that right side are brand new.  You think I could have
damaged the outer race of the inner bearing by drifting it in?    I
don't hear anything on jackup and spin.  I may try to get it spinning
faster and see if I hear anything.

Mark, you are right.  Even not taking that into consideration the
bias toward the right is not that strong.  When I asked one of the
auto-tech instructors at work about it that was the first thing he
said was that the bias on turning sometimes causes the noise to come
from the unloaded wheel.
