Rear Wheel Growl?

Rear Wheel Growl?
I'm not sure how best to describe this, but here goes.
I have a 2001 Ram 2500 2wd diesel that on hard tight left turns like in a parking lot I feel a strange growl (not really a noise) in the left rear wheel. This has been doing it for three years. I've had the rear end fluid changed and the rear end inspected, but they said it was fine. I first suspected a tire but have since replaced all four. It kinda feels like I'm going over a marbley road. Does not do it at any speeds forward or back. I generally know what a bad wheel bearing feels like as I've had to replace some on other vehicles. However I've never had one go on like this for so long and only in tight turns. BTW, front end has also been inspected and is good. Any thoughts other than tearing down the wheel and inspecting the bearings?

A Sur-grip rear will sometimes have a slight shudder. I don't hear mine growl but I do feel the shudder. I'm also deaf as a post. You might just need a friction mollifier in your rear end.
