Default 95 Blazer strange Noise

Hello all
but really loudI have a 95 blazer 4x4 getting a rubbing noise from the front left tire, Sounds like Brakes rubbing Jacked up front end and spun both tires and can hear the normal brake drag noise
Noise almost sounds like the rubber boot on the axle is the source, I removed the brake caliper cleaned the area where the speed sensor is which is not working, noise was still there sprayed the boot with WD40 and it seemed to get quieter but after putting it back together the noise is still there. I have replaced both Calipers and brake pads recently figuring 1 might be hanging up causing the brake drag but the noise continues. any suggestions?

possible wheel bearing? does it seem to get louder or quieter when you turn a certain way/ going around curves? they can be quite annoying.
brake dust cover bent and rubbing on tire?

don't think it's the wheel bearing sounds more like brakes dragging, when i remove the front brake caliper and spin the axle the noise is gone when caliper is back on without the tire it there again
could be just brakes rubbing but it's annoying and didn't do it before?
