Check the bearing again,sound,s like it,s bad,even thoe a new one,can be bad.

I had this problem and used the parts replacement method too. I changed all four shocks and two front struts. Noise and vibration still there. I changed both L and R CV axles. Noise and vibration still there. I replaced both front bearings and hubs. Noise and vibration still there. Finally I checked and replaced the Steering Control arms. Problem fixed. I mean it was like night and day. I got a professional laser/computer wheel alignment and driving it is so smooth. You can check your steering control arms by unbolting them one at a time from the steering knuckle and testing them for play. There should be zero play, zero. If you are unfamiliar with what a new control arm should be like, ask at your parts store to check one out. When I unbolted the control arm from the passenger side steering knuckle it flopped around like a 90-year-old's pecker.
