Default HELP!!!2006 awd 70,000miles 4.7

So i hear whirring sound from the front (seems like it anyway) so i replaces the wheel bearings.
they were bad but noise still persists. Sounds the same as a bad wheel bearing but its an AWD so what else could it be? It doesnt make this sound in reverse or when idling. Checked the half shafts but they seem fine. Makes a wherr wherr wherr sound when moving forward but not louder on turns or doing circles to diagnose.it does turn into louder whining sound when moving at 50mph and when slowing its more like a soft grinding sound till you get to 30mph then its back to wherr wherr wherr...driving me crazy and into the poor house replacing parts. Today i spent $1300 on parts and didnt get lucky. Still wherring around in my adventurer which is mint shape btw im posting pics tmrw

Default All fluids changed today as well

Front 75-90, rear 75-140 synthetics, tranfer case fluid was fine. Front was blackish and rear was down 2 quarts for some reason but the color was light beige, tranny fluid was perfect with no bad smells and rear seal small sweating but no reason to worry and at 70,000 miles what else could it be?
