What are the symptoms of a worn front wheel bearing?

I have a strange clunk like noise that appears to be in the front left wheel area. It can best be heard when one or the other front wheels, hit an imperfection in the raod at mid to higher speeds. Not as obvious if both wheels hit a bump together.

Whats been recently replaced:
-Sway-bar links
-Upper ball joints, arms, bushings
-shocks
-motor mounts
-lower ball-joints replaced a couple years ago

There is no noise when sitting still and turning the steering wheel end to end. Only when driving. Kind of has a dampened clunk type sound if that helps. lastly, there is a slight vibration in the steering wheel ONLY over 80MPH.

Thanks
Bill
