I have a humming noise coming from the front end whenever I turn even slightly left. i have replaced the tires and front wheel hub bearing assemblies with no improvement. Any ideas what may be causing it. Everthing seems to be normal as far as handling and steering go except for the noise. Thank you.

Have you tried to raise the front end off the ground and allow the wheels to spin so you can listen for the noise? It will take the help of an assistant to do this.
Listen around the hubs and transmission output bearings with a stethescope. This should help pinpoint the noise.
