binding and grinding

Jessezj · Mar 20, 2002

Nothing is packed in there. the underside is clear and just to make sure of that, I took my time today and went slowly but surely (as to not mess anything up) to a pressure washer and cleaned her up real nice. I still get the grinding noise, even when entering a parking lot off of the hightway from the slight incline at a slow speed. I guess I'm just gonna haul it back home on a trailer and take it back to the guyt hat did the work for me before. Maybe he has a warranty of some sort....

Unless you guys know of anything else I can do on my own.

OK jesse...sorry I didn't help. I don't have any experience with ZJs only with FSJs & WJs.......One last shot...Jack up the front and rotate each wheel and listen for odd noise. Then grab the top and bottom of each wheel then jerk or pull at the bottom if you feel much play you've got a bearing problem....any how ...good luck....Don S..

thanks don.... I'll try that as soon as I can find someone that will let me use their jacks because I dont' trust my factory jack to be yanking on a tire like that.

It's been acting fine as long as I take it slow over inclines at an angle, such as curbs, parking lots, speed bumps. As long as I go slow turning out of places and don't gas it hard, it never makes a noise at all. I'm going to have access to my tools this weekend, so I'll jack her up and see if I can find out what's going on. I'll let you know later in the week. Thanks guys for all of your suggestions and help. I'll keep ya posted
