Weird High-Pitched Sound When Turning (passenger side)

[rcwilli7]

So I randomly started having a really weird occurrence… I get this weird high-pitched grinding/squeaking noise when I turn but it is ONLY when it is about 45ish or so degrees — any more or any less there is no noise. It also is not the whole time at the angle through the corner — it’s only a second or so. I have taken the wheel off to see if I could see anything touching, even rotating the wheel to see if anything is touching. Possible bad bearing? Just it’ll happen at a specific angle and not at others.

I would suspect bearings if the brakes are fine. Just throwing it out there. Assuming these are sealed bearings and replaced as a unit. Replace in pairs. If one is bad, the other is not far behind.
Any scuffing on the tire or rim?

Nope no scuffing when I took them off. It almost sounds like worn brakes when you come to a stop but it is only for a second.

Is it when braking in the turn or every time you turn with or with brakes? Mileage?

It was happening regardless of braking. I waited to reply, because I was replacing my pads, and the noise completely went away. Not sure if some hardware had un-seated somehow but it's gone!
