Our guess is that you have a CV joint going out, that is if it is a front wheel drive vehicle......If it isn't look at the wheel bearings that usually starts out during acceleration and then turns into a low roar while driving.
If you replace the Half shaft replace the bearing also. You have it all apart anyway.

ok first verify to work out if the wheels have been placed back (tyre rotation) you if the tyres are V rated or rotational tyres the you will see an arrow on the part wall's, This must be pointing to the forward direction. this would produce a whistling noise. 2) the tyre and metallic rim or magazine wheel will come off the motor automobile for the balancing so verify to in the event that they did no longer bend one the backing plat/s and can be grinding on the brake disks. 3) the wheel nut/s can't be over tightened so which you do no longer ought to hardship to lots here is) 4) it relatively is a wheel bearing yet this dose no longer sound like it with a view to be secure you are able to have them checked yet first shall we do the extra in all probability mess united statesconsisting of tyre rotation and balancing. 5) in the event that they balanced the wheels they might have made a balls up on the main suitable led weights that they used on the wheels or they the place no longer caught to the rim marvelous, by using airborne dirt and mud on the outdoors that the led weight would be or has been caught. on good thank you to learn if the wheel alignment and balancing has been executed at a seventy 5 to ninety% good placing. SEE factors (a million get a highway that it as point as you are able to, now force the automobile up say 10 to 20 miles an hour and enable circulate off the wheel and slowly step on the brake, If the automobile starts to veer to the left or suitable part then this could tutor you that the wheel alignment is out. now it particularly is a ay to learn in case you do no longer desire to spend on having it checked. observe the tyre rotation must be maximum suitable to try this.) element 2, Get an prolonged with street with velocity shrink of say 35 to seventy 5 miles an hour, Now once you are trying this as much as the max velocity of seventy 5 mile an hour at any time if the guidance wheel starts to rattle and shake this could tutor you that the balancing is out on one or each and all of the wheels. this you're able to do your self with out having to pay for it. now at 10mph I doubt it particularly is going to be any (balancing or alignment if this occurs at 10mph) if you desire to ought to look some place ells to work out what it particularly is. sorry want extra information or would desire to be there to work out the failure. Oh! Sears dam you're very brave, yet i will't pontificate as all to there own techniques.

Take a tire off and look at the rotors and brakes. My kid let it go so bad that the caliper dug over half the rotor off (yes he went through all the cooling fins in the middle too) , but it sounds like the wear bar is what you're hearing.

Sounds like your brake pads need changing and more than likely your discs!
