Default Front end noise

I have a '93 del Sol SI that I'm trying to sort out all the problems with. It has an annoying noise when moving that changes with wheel speed. It's a "rum rum rum" sort of sound. The CV boot on the right was torn, so I assumed it was the cause. I replaced both axles with Advance Auto new axles over the weekend. The new axles went in easy, but the noise is still there. However it might not be as loud as it was.

You can make tight turns in either direction and there is no clicking. When you are driving straight and give the car a little nudge to the left, you can hear the noise increase as the weight of the car shifts.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
Mike M.

Sounds like a bad wheel bearing. Buy a new bearing. Remove the knuckle and have a shop press out the old bearing and install the new one.
