I've got a 99 2wd cherokee sport. i replaced both front hubs about a year ago, maybe less. at the time, only the driver side was actually bad, but i went ahead and replaced them both. now that same side is making similar noise as when it was first bad. sounds as if the rotor or pads are grinding. a little help please
 
When you replaced them did you torque the axle nut to 175 Foot pounds? If you tightem it like tapered wheel bearings then the unit bearing quickly takes a $h!t. I made that mistake when I was a cherokee newbie and trashed a unit bearing.
