Sounds like a bearing or a rubbing backing plate. See if the plate is contacting anywhere (it will be shiny where it contacts). Next step would be to raise the front end onto jackstands, then rotate the tires while applying the brakes. If you get grinding from rotating the tires, bearings are shot.
If you are doing the work yourself, go to www.RockAuto.com for inexpensive parts. And they do have a forum for various vehicles. Also, try out www.crownvic.net for plenty of info on the panthers.
