Grinding noise when I brake or turn right. Already checked brake pads, changed rotors, changed driver side wheel bearing, and checked u joints. I originally thought it was a brake problem but the noise almost sounds like it is coming from my dashboard. I tried uploading a video with this post but I’m not sure that it worked. Thanks for any ideas!

Did you check all the bolts on the control arms? I had an adjustable lower arm that the nut had worked loose on that made a noise similar to that. Thought my shock was coming off.

I actually figured it out! The breather tube for my front differential popped out so when I put it back in the noise stopped.
