I was thinking axle or CV joint.

Don't know if the balljoints would cause that noise. At least i've never seen that as a sypmtom...but I could be wrong.

You sure the hub is good? Alot of times if the bearing went bad its best to also replace the hub. It can lead to the bearing not seating well or wearing out quicker.

It could be a stuck caliper.

Well look at the bright side, you have spare half shafts, unless you traded them for cores.
