What grinds when turning that isn’t wheel bearings?

Interesting thought.

How do I figure it out besides putting the car up on all 4 jack stands and “driving” it.

Does it sound like a horse walking fast down a paved street?

No…it sounds like wheel bearings. I’m honestly curious if my new brake pads are rubbing and I’m only hearing it when the wheel is turned.

How have you determined it's not a wheel bearing?

I put two brand new oem wheel bearings on it. I guess they could be bad but seems like if I had the sound before, swapped them, still had the sound…it wasn’t them.

Well that's one way.

Put it in the air, 3rd or 4th gear and let it run. Then start poking around with a stethoscope.
