1998 Toyota Corolla Nasty noises coming from the front end

Try this:

Raise car, put on stands. Grasp tire and push/pull both horizontally and vertically, if any movement then possible wheel bearing, ball joint, tie rod, control arm bushing.

Check CV boots for any signs of leakage or cuts/rips in rubber boot.

Whoever replaced the bearing should have checked the ball joint, bushings, tie rods, control arm etc.
