Default 2003 K1500 - grinding/rubbing while turning left

I am hoping someone can help me diagnose what is causing the following:
Turning the steering wheel to the left cuases 'grinding/rubbing' at certain spots, and it can be heard and felt on the steering wheel.
This onlyhappens at certain points during the turn, not all the time. It doesn't matter if Iturn the steering wheel from the center, or from all the way on the right. It only happens turning left. And it happens in park, drive, and reverse. It is a 2003 suburban with just under 70K miles.
Any ideas? Thanks.

right front wheel bearing. the right wheel bearing takes all the load when the car is left of center and vice-versa
