Rubbing sound when turning at low speed

[pwdcougar]

Ok first off this isn't a truck or a chevy. It's on a 1969 Cougar. You guys here are much better than my Cougar forums.

At low speed the car feels/sounds like something is rubbing when turning. I am running oversized tires and wheels and it does not seem like the tires are actually rubbing. I jacked up the front end by the lower control arms turned the wheel lock to lock and there is plenty of clearance. The tires seem to turn fine and there is no movement when pulling on the top or bottom of the tire. This makes me want to rule out wheel bearings. All of the steering components are greased and feel solid. The rubbing feel is present at very low speed when there is no body roll.

What the heck am I missing?

Thanks

Paul
