Default Rotational Noise at Low Speed

Hey everyone, I have a 99 Disco 1, pretty good shape with only about 107k miles on her - I recently got a rubbing / scraping (almost think two balloons rubbing together with a few metal shavings thrown in) that I can really only detect at low speeds, when accelerating up to about 30 mph, and when turning it seems worst. I have already replaced the front drive shaft with a Tom Woods, I got under the truck and greased all the fittings on the front and rear driveshafts, I also drained and refilled the t case, and both diffs, checked my trans fluid and all looks good there - where is my next stop?

Also check your parking brake drum. Mine became slightly out of round/offset and was hitting the interior pads.

Well, becoming out of round/offset sounds like fun!

Maybe check brakes too. Easy first step when going into the hubs anyway.
