Humming noise on driver side, not wheel bearing?

when i make right turns i hear a humming noise coming from the front driver side wheel. thought it was the wheel bearing so i replaced those but it didn't stop the noise. any ideas of what else it might be?

yea, its a definite hum. i thought it was the dust shield too, but i completely removed that and it still humms. I will try to rotate the tires. I'm thinking it might be the axel u-joints? :s
