Default front end noises/rubbing noises

hey guys i have recentlly been hearing some front end noises on my 2003 h2. i dont know if its just because ive been paying mpre attention or because maybe one of the noises got louder causing me to notice these noises but i noticed these a few days ago and my mechanic checked wheel hub and cv and said it was fine and we went to a parking lot and did some driving and turns and all seemed fine but i think road noise masked the noise. also parts ive changed within the last year include:
moog lower ball j
moog upper control arm with ball j
moog tie rod and ends
mechanic said pitman feels tight still

well today at night i went driving and i dont know if this is me or paranoia or what it is but i feel like i heard a swoosh swoosh noise and i can only hear it when im slowing down and the speedometer is close to 0 so i assume i hear it between 5-10 mph. maybe it is still present at higher rpm/speeds but i dont know cuz my exhuast/engine noise could be hiding it. also i noticed when i am turning right while driving at slow speeds like when u are normally taking a slight right turn or whatever while driving i heard a rubbing noise i feel like it is. it doesnt seem to do it at fiull stop and maybe it does it at fastr speeds but i think engine noise could be hiding it. i checked and dont see any tire rubbingor anything


i think firstly ill remove the front undercage splash thing and see if that fixes it otherwise i wanted your guys opinion on this

1. can i just keep driving and just not pay attnetion to it and then when it gets loud or worse enough that its actually pin pointable that i can just replace that part?or is that bad for my front end because it seems like its going to be hard to trace
2. what do u think it is? or should i just drop the $ and replace hubs and cv's because they are all stock so far i beliueve on my 200k mile vehicle

thx

thanks for the reply way I’ve noticed that but it only happens there when it’s lockout or near lockout. I started limiting my near lock out maneuvers every since I noticed the shiny.

Siemthung however still sounds like it’s rubbing on half turns
