I just recently started to notice a really loud hum as I drive down the road now. I put 10k miles on my, lift, 5k on my lockers and tires and up to this point no unusual noise. In the last 500 miles a loud hum developed but as I let off the gas, no more hum until I accelerate then it sounds like a military truck rolling down the street. My guess is wheel bearings but before I start replacing parts I would like to know other opinions.

The jeep is a 2002 with 99k original miles

Does kinda sound like a wheel bearing going. Turning the wheel at speed make it come and go? Left or right side? But I will agree the alignment could cause a wheel to humm .
