Front end noise

Been here for a while but havent posted much so I figured I would put this here. I have a groaning noise from the front end that I would think to be a wheel bearing but there is no play in it. Doesnt change when put in Neutral, only changes with speed at which I am traveling. Engine mount is starting to leak so I dont know if that could be it. Brakes check out ok too. Any ideas?
 


Wheel bearings done have to be loose to be bad.

Jack up the front end and spin each tire while holding the spring with your other hand, spin it as fast as you can to see if you feel the vibration from the bearing coming up the strut.
 
I didn't know about checking with the spring like that. As soon as I did that I could tell a difference in the passenger side which is where it seemed to be coming from in the first place. So I guess I need to change the bearing on that side now. No big deal I have done the other side twice now. Thanks again for the info. You guys are awsome.
