Default humming noise from rear wheel
After replacing FUF control arm and tie rod end to fix shimmy and low speed banging sound, now I'm on to the next problem. Alright, I'm not positive on this but I think (and hope) its only a wheel bearing not a CV. Car hums out of LR wheel at all speeds but only when tracking straight or turning R. Wheel is silent when turning left. Any ideas?

That is EXACTLY what I experienced last week. And yes, replacing bearing fixed it.
