Grinding noise part deux...

8.25 was installed, runs great minus two things.

Issue 1. Slight driveline vibes, but barely noticeable. Happens around 35mph but goes away. Really not an issue unless it's related to #2.

Issue 2. When I turn right, at speed, there's a 'rotational' grinding noise that's increased/decreased according to speed increased/decreased. Sounds to me like it's something in the left rear wheel area.

I figured the left rear wheel bearing, load that side with weight during the right turn, it grinds, simple.

I did both wheel bearings tonight, but the sound persists.

So now I'm going to go with brakes, could a warped drum/shot shoes cause such noise? I just don't get why it'd only make the noise with the weight of the jeep shifted one direction.
