So I've been hitting problem after problem and i haven't even taken it off the fking highway yet. The latest thing is that it's pulling to the left and randomly when i go over a bump it started out as a noise like a plastic fender rubbing. It would stop every time i slowed down so i could never isolate it. Now it's developed into a vibration. That does the same thing, stops when i slow down or sometimes when I hit another bump. Everything seems tight. And now it's gotten to the point of where i can feel a little bit of grind in the wheel as i go.
Anyone know a good mechanic in Austin or Dallas,preferably Austin since I'm here. I'm starting to lose my patience and I'm tired of breaking out my tools on the side of the road.

If it is, then it has a '99 to '04 Dana 50 or 60 from a Ford F-Series Truck. Those years are known to have Unit Bearing (Wheel Bearing) problems, and that is the first thing I would check.
