Noise when turning right

So I just replaced the cv axle. Now whenever I turn right there is a noise that sounds like the tire is rubbing on something. the faster I go, the faster the noise gets. Can post a video if needed, any idea what this could be?

if it sounds like something is rubbing, chances are something is rubbing. take a look at the car and figure out what is rubbing. we cant see the bottom of your car from the internet

Put it up in the air, take the wheel off and see where contact is being made
Best case, dust shield

If it was a rebuilt axle that was installed, there’s a possibility it could be defective

So for some reason the noise just went away. Still not sure what it was. On another note, I will NEVER be using a scissor jack again. Damn thing just collapsed. Luckily the only thing that was damaged was the dust shield behind the rotor.. And yes I know I should have been using stand and put the tire under the car.

Put scissor jack under the suspension arm, and jack it up again. Or, you can jack the car from the front jack point.

Scissor jacks are shit though. I never rely on them unless in an absolute pinch.
