Growling noise

On my 98 it has a bit of a growling noise from the front end it sounds like. It will do it if you hit a bump. i thought it was a wheel bearing, so i replaced both of them but it still does it sometimes, just not as loud as it was before. Any one have any ideas?

Have you checked the front drive shaft ?and your differential oil level ?, even possible that a rear u joint is going, because it will transfer the noise through the whole drive line..

I checked the fluid, and it seems there is a noticable amout leaking from the drivers side wheel, I will have to look a little closer at the wheel joints. Thanks
