Wheel Bearings

[YYC-SIERRA]

What age / mileage do the bearings typically start to go on these 14-18 trucks? 

 

Is there one side bearing that typically goes first? (had an old subaru, it was always right rear)

I'm at 90k, just put new AT tires on this spring. Started getting a light drone / hum noise in the front. Can't tell if it's just my AT tires or a bearing going out. 

 

Tends to slightly decrease the drone / hum in a right turn, stays constant during straight driving and left turns.

My right front bearing for my 2016 got replaced in Dec last year at just over 91k miles. It wasn't constant but was definitely there when turning left or driving left sweepers. Not a loud growling, just a different noise I could hear. New bearing installed and noise was gone.

Our Suburban's went at 90k.

Thanks guys. I'm going to rotate the tires and see if it changes.

80k Thought it was tire noise, replaced tires (no slop or wiggle when grabbing the wheels on a jack). Drive truck after new tires, aahhhhhhhhh

 

Turns out both front wheel bearings shot. 80k
