Might be a CV joint.
Go into a big empty parking lot and turn the wheel all the way to the left, slowly drive in a circle.
Repeat turning wheel all the way to the right.
Do you have a clicking or any feeling/noise either way?

no clicking. ive heard bad cv joints b4 nothing like that
sorta like rar rar rar rar rar but realy fast
and i can feel it on the floor board too
but it only does it when i turn to the left
just fine when i turn to the right.
i was thinking more along the line of a wheel bearing??

nope brakes work just fine. besides my abs dont work. and my rear drive wheel likes to lock up at 2 mph. but only on gravel. i realy need to get that fixed too. but no brakes works fine.

I go with a bad hub assembly... I replaced one on my car, and found that it had turned Blue... It was shot and had play in the bearings assembly.... $130 fixed that problem... 4 Months later the other side...
Then the 91 needed one, was making a roaring sound... Next thing you the other side went out...

I totally agree with JR.. sounds like simple wheel bearing/hub assembly. All one part.
