Noise while turning

Compare left & right sides. Noise and feel should be obvious on the bad side.

alright I went outside and pulled the driver side wheel/caliper and the hub is still not free rolling but it is not notchy in the slightest bit. It is smooth rolling, just tight. I noticed that they both spin for about the same duration with the wheels on and it off the ground. But the passenger side has a slight noise.

Yup, it's the bearing.

Its also normal to feel some free play back and forth when spinning the wheel, this could be construed as "notchy" but could be something else also. I had an old diff that made this whirling noise when turning from a stop, its was noisy and a fluid change was all that was required to eliminate it. Before you go assuming you have a bearing problem, I would have first replaced the diff fluid, and highly recommend the heavier 75/140w. Unless its readily apparent to you that you do indeed have a bad wheel bearing, I would try the fluid change first.
haha yes I was referring to the front passenger side wheel, I was a little confused when talk of a differential came into play. Like I said the hub does not spin freely, even with me forcefully trying to get it to spin on its own it stops as soon as my hand stops touching it. I think its in the early stages of going bad as it doesn't make loud noises or warm the rim up. Im going to do my best to not drive on it until the part comes in and I have time to install it.
I cant imagine it not freely spinning being normal?

Sorry, missed that detail on front. But good for future reference on noise from the rear

Think he pulled the calipers off the wheels.

Yea I pulled the calipers off and I was rotating only the hubs and then also tested them with the calipers and tires on. Thank you all again!
