Grind/Click Sound - Front Axle
97XJ Sport w/Dana 30 front axle. Noticed a few days ago an unusual
noise during slow speed tight turns. Parked the Jeep and used the daughters car to finish up last week of work. Now that I'm on vacation, I jacked up the jeep yesterday, and it sounded like the brake pads ( the vehicle was inspected a couple of months back, and they passed it with a note that the pads would need to be replaced soon). So, wife drives into the city and picks up new pads on her way home from work. I replace them, and I'm still getting the noise on the passenger side when I spin the tire. Does it with the vehicle lifted and when the tires are straight. This same noise was also made when the vehicle was on the ground/stationary, and turning the steering. I replaced the hub assy last fall. I looked at the u-joint, and didn't notice any play...but, I know looks can be deceiving. Any thoughts? Am I looking at replacing the u-joint, or do I have a defective hub assy? Thnks, Eric in NNY |

There you go again, from the biggest loser of them all! The jealous,
really jealous, I can't believe how jealous this little draft dodging coward schizophrenic psychopath liar hiding in Vancouver via S0106000ea6ba70e7.vn.shawcable.net 24.86.24.251 who's only way to get attention is to make a fool of it's self. With an obsession with perverts and goats, where it writes via remailers, and cross posts to other perverts to no one's surprise. With extreme jealous ranting over my documents, possessions, successes, manliness and super Southern California surfing body, beard, and loving family. Committing forgery over many of them proving I'm a responsible American man. You remind me of a little rat dog, like a Mexican Chiwawa with it's senseless barking, me too, me too. You're even more senile than I first thought. And the poor thing, you're too girlie to take responsibility for yourself again, by signing your statement like a man. That really thinks the group's members are so stupid not to know it's the same coward, you posting over and over again using schizophrenic psychopath forge up names??????? You're not worth any more time when a cut and paste this same paragraph it fits so well!

"What" is making the same noise? If you hold your hand on the u-joint and 'feel' it while slowly moving the wheel when cut to the side, you should be able to 'feel' the clicks. Are there any rust stains near the u-joint caps? Are the u-joints greasable (either a zerk on the X or little plugs on the ends of the caps) and have they been greased? Mike |

First thing I'd look at is the steering knuckle U-joint. Look for a
trace of rust around the rim of the rubber seal on the joint cups. Jack it up, put transfer case in 4wd, try turning the wheel back and forth see if you get ANY play in the joint. Mike mentioned cutting it hard, do that both left and right. If you recently replaced the hub, replacing the U-joint should take less than an hour. On a 10 year old vehicle, you are about due. wrote: > 97XJ Sport w/Dana 30 front axle. Noticed a few days ago an unusual > noise during slow speed tight turns.
