Is it the right side that is "grabbing?" I'd put a jack under it, and remove the wheel (right side) first, then feel what what play you might have. Sounding like a front axle bearing with that mileage.

Will try, but the constant is the wheel bearing is there with or w/o the 4wd in or out. No problems in 2wd. Any thoughts on a miss under acceleration that feels like water in the gas. New OE pump and HD strainer, filter too. Did code EGR fault and replaced valve and position sensor tested OK. No codes retained now. I know, it's a $500.00 truck but it's still a truck that this old parts man cannot figure out. Still runs @ high RPM w/o the miss, so it's getting fuel there.

That is what I was going on. My 2000 Suburban at about your mileage had the bearing problem you described.
