Default Torque Tube issue?
I have a sound coming from the car that matches the engine RPMs but sounds like a bad wheel bearing... the sound varies with engine rpm and not vehicle speed. So I assume it is coming from the torque tube, but here is the weird part, when I turn right, the sound goes away.

Has anyone experienced something similar?

I will try to get one but it's not super load, but just loud enough to be annoying and concerning

When mt TT bearings went out, it was a rattle at idle in gear.
