There’s a constant horrible grinding while driving BUT The grinding goes away only while making sharp left turns when weight of vehicle is off driver side. I replaced CV and Hub. I’m thinking sticking caliper or warped rotor but I’m not sure what to look for.
 
Did you look at both brake rotors and pad sets?
Did you check if you have a lot of bearing play?
 
I have not, someone said to jack the car and put it in neutral and spin the wheels but I don’t know the best way to do that. Don’t want it rolling off jack stands with wheels off, even if the wheels are blocked off
 
Seems like just taking a look would be the easiest way to start. You cannt spin the wheels in neutral on a FWD vehicle.

I just had to replace both hub assembly / bearings. There was 0 play in tires when trying to rock back and forth but both assembly's disintegrated upon removal. It almost sounded like an airplane taking off or driving on a rumble strip.

I'm stupid. I missed the part where you said you replaced the hub lol
