Default Grinding noise when stopping and turning

I have an 02 blazer with standard 4x4. Just recently I have had this grinding noise coming from what seems to be the front end. Brakes look and feel solid and I would have said that if it were not for the sound happening when I turn as well. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I have the same problem but only in four wheel drive. It only happens going like 5 m/hr while turning. I'm going to replace the front diff and transfer case fluid next weekend to see if that remedies the problem. Have you got under your front end and pulled on the components to see if there is any play in them? I going to inspect my suspension when I jack up the car to replace the fluids. How are your brakes? Your front pads could be worn down to the rivets and causing a grinding noise against your rotors. Hope this helps!

I have recently had the same problem but coming from my rear. Mostly when i turn right but its there a little quieter when i turn left. The grinding also happens when i stop or slow down.
