I have a dodge ram 1500 quad cab truck. When I accellerate from a stop, there is a loud hum that sounds like it is related to the wheel movement. It only lasts for a couple seconds and I think it stops if I turn hard.  
  
  
  
 Can it be related to the wheel barings?  
  
  
  
 Any suggestions to what it may be?  
  
  
  
 Thank you,
