when i drive over 60 per hour, i hear a whisling noice, mostly on the passanger side, it seems to come from the wheals, but i'm not sure. I heard it only once from the left side. When i take my foot off the accelerator the noice disapears.
Any help would be appreciated.

Does the sound change when you turn? Have you checked the brakes?

Let me know.

The other things that could make the noise will be hub bearing, input bearing (front differential) output bearing (transfer case) Check for play.
