Pulsating noise and vibration in curves!
Pulsating sound and vibration when taking curves that go to the right. I had both rear bearings changed but still have the problem when I am in a curve thats turning right. When I am in a curve thats turning left there is no noise at all. Does that mean my left front bearing could be bad?

You are going to have to isolate things further before dumping money into things that aren't bad. Do you have any cupping on your tires? If so, it might only be the alignment. Differential is a possibility too as in low on fluid. I found mine only had half a quart of fluid in there whereas it was supposed to have 1.7 qts and no evidence of a leak.

Before I had the rear bearing changed searching for the noise out I had a new transmission and differential put in. However my front tires are badly chopped up so I will go for new tires before I change out the front bearings. It only does it when I go around a curve thats turning right.

I asked about the tires because I spent for a new differential and rear wheel bearings after hearing a noise and felt vibration in a right turn. Turns out it was the cupped tires in my case.

$4474.98 and going
Well got the new tires today and still have the noise but its about half as loud now. I will get the front bearings changed out tomorrow and see if that takes care of the noise. So far I have new tires all around, rear bearings changed out, transmission and differential rebuilt, new wheels all around, brake job all around! If the noise continues after the bearings are changed tomorrow the noise will just have to be tolerated.
