What is this strange scrubbing sound?

I can't find the cause of this noise.
When driving less than 10 mph and turning left into my drive way or any driveway with a slight incline.Also it makes this Scrubbing sound when going slow over uneven terrain.
The sound is like a tire rubbing.All tires are stock size and pretty much worn out
I've spent about an hour under the truck and can't find anything out of place or even close to the tires or drive-shaft.It won't make the noise on level ground.Could it be the drive-shaft support brackets or a bad wheel bearing?
Also I can feel it in floor board.This scrubbing sound last for about 2 or 3 seconds.Everything drives and brakes just fine.
Any help is more than appreciated.
Tim
