went wheeling today.....

[mikeyours]

Well most of you should know what the weather was like today well after I got off work a buddy of mine and I went wheeling. After that was all said and done I went and washed the mud off my TJ well now when I drive there is a very loud sound comming from the driver side wheel, dont know what it is sounds like just screaching almost like a school board...Think some thing is freezing or frozen? or did something break. Didnt wheel to hard today just some mud holes and hills.

rocks in the caliper/brake pad? Jack it up and move your wheels back and forth. Should help out.

[mikeyours]

Ill go check that out now

[mckeddie]

i'd guess something in the wheel or brake too.

Mud seems kind of obvious huh..

[mikeyours]

Well yeah mud probably frozen mud

I personally find my TJ runs better dirty. Mine wouldn't know what to do if it was wheeled and washed in the same day. If nothing else, turn the radio up. I recommend 94.9 The Sound.

94.9 is the suck now... "it's different here"... whatever.

yeah, they play different stuff than everyone else, but they still only have a playlist of about 60 songs that they recycle...

The new 96 Rock is cool lately, but on Sirius, i'm all about Left Of Center, Backspin, Buzzsaw, Octane, etc... i'd die without my sirius.

Sirus all the way!!! anywho...well that was the problem but i noticed something when I had the wheel off. This is my first jeep and im still learning, the studs were moving back and forth when I applyed pressure about a 1/16 of an inch. the axle shaft nut was moving to. is this normal or are my shafts pulling out? The 4wheel drive was working fine today. Is there something I can get to help me with understanding my axels and how to work on them?

[hardluck]

might be the unit bearing the axle runs through, i dont think it should have any play in it like that but im not sure

[mikeyours]

anyone else know whats going on???

How new is this jeep and what has it been through as far as wheeling?
