Strange Frontend Noise

[crazykaese]

When accelerating around an onramp I get this shug shug shug that increases with my speed. It goes away when I get straightened out again. Any idea what it might be? No vibrations at speed either.

Cmon.......NOBODY has ANY idea what this noise could be? I've checked and nothing is loose. Any guesses?

Can you feel anything such as a tire slipping if the differential is staying locked.

Tires rubbing on something? I am not imagining a shug sound very well.

Internet noise identification is one of the hardest games ever.

Like brand new sneakers on a freshly polished basketball court.......that kind of sound. I know our trucks should not be capable of such noises, but that's what it kinda sounds like to me.....

Well, the obvious, I suppose, but here goes:

lug nuts?
power steering fluid/belt?
wheel bearings?

Hm. Maybe have someone drive alongside you in a parking lot and check for unusual stuff?

Otherwise, consider taking it to a shop and have them do a shake-down on the front end.

Any other info you can give?
