Also I just got done inspecting the hubs I pulled off and found the following
1. Hubs were 100% solid, no play at all, they were nowhere near completely failing.
2. I found a lack of grease around the actual ball bearings , the grease little bit of grease on and around the ball bearings seemed thicker and darker than the grease that was at the rear seal of the hub (on the internal side). It is my observation that these two factors led to the extremly loud humming and annoying vibration.
