Suspension problem
1999 Ford Ranger Engine Size unknown Wheel Drive Type unknown Automatic 28.711 miles

This is a recent noise, but everytime I go over a speed bump or just a rough road I can hear the noise on the passenger side. It almost sounds like the noise a straw makes when you pull it really slow out of a plastic lid. It's only by that one tire.
This is my first truck, so I have learn all the new noises!
HELP!
Thanks !

Check ball joints, upper control arm bushings, or shock.

This happens when the bearing hub goes out, I would raise he truck up and spin the tire to confirm, here is how to change the hub out. Check out the images (below). Please upload pictures or videos in your response of any problems so we can see what to help you with.
