It could be a wheel bearing.

To test the wheel bearings, jack the front of the car up and try to move the tires up and down. If they have some movement to them , your bearings could be bad.

Interesting. I was wondering what that noise was that would go away when I threw the car left. Note to self: jack up this weekend.

I jacked up the front and there was little to no play in them. Any more ideas?

check all the nuts and bolts on suspesion. make sure everything is tight. when i was a tech at a shop we had that problem on some new cars that had loose nuts and bolts. and still saw it happen on some used cars too.

a lot of times problems end up being something really simple.

good luck

A bearing can be completely shot without the movement. If those noises are coming from my car, the FIRST thing I'm doing is replacing the bearings.

Especially if the noise changes upon turning, with the parts you say you have replaced. CHANGE YOUR BEARINGS.
