Truck grinding noise

hey guys...well the last two days i have a grinding noise coming from the front of my truck. not sure what it is. just had my transmission rebuilt but think its the spindle in my right wheel. it sounds like a metal on metal grind. My right wheel cannot be manually spun when its on a jack..but my left wheel can? any ideas?

Check your brakes. If your pads got too low on one side then the piston might be holding the metals plates against your rotors. I had it happen to me. AND YES one side can where more then the other because of wheeling.

Well the damage isnt bad...all it is, is a bad hub behind the rotors. Only like a $90 part plus labor...
