vibration
I have a 94 two wheel drive. I'm getting a small vibration from the front end. It's accompanied by a loud deep hum. The faster I go the louder it gets. When I turn right it goes away. It's also pulling slightly to the right. I'm kinda thinking it's a wheel bearing but not sure. Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks

Possibly bearing but you may just need your tires balanced and a front end alignment

Had my tires rotated and balanced a month ago. This just started happening yesterday. I didn't hit anything. I check, the weights are still on the wheels.

Depending on driving conditions tires could be out of balance again.
I know my ranger seems to haves issues with it.
The best way to check is jack that wheel up and spin it and check for play in it. And compare it to your other side.

If you do need wheel bearings you might as well do the pads and rotors. The rotors will most likely come with the inner bearings in them. If you just get bearings you will have to get them pressed in. Get new seals also
Also check for something hitting the wheel, rim, rotor, etc

Also make sure your brakes aren't grabbing. That can cause pulling also.
