Brakes problem
2003 Dodge Durango Four Wheel Drive Automatic

There is a constant grinding noise coming from the front passenger tire. We checked the brake pads, rotors and replaced the caliper. It is still grinding, while braking as well as while driving what else could cause this?

I have raised the vehicle and spun the tire as well as checked for any loosness. How else would I check the bearing to cause the grinding?

wiggle the tire and look for play in the wheel on the spindle. if found there its wheel bearing. if its on the knuckle ball joints may be bad.
