Pulling to one side sounds like wheel alignment and therefore a tie rod, strut or steering knuckle issue.

Not sure I've ever heard a "crunching" noise. A wheel bearing typically makes a hum on curves at cruising speeds. A drive axle sounds like loose ball bearings (which is what it is) when turning hard in first gear.
