I have been have a annoying squeak from the driver front

hey guys haven't been on inna bit got a new job been makin some money for the jeep but ive had this squeaking coming from the driver front tire "only" when i turn idk what it is everything seem to be ok and tight. Any ideas?

 

Since it appears to occur only on turns my next step would be to raise the front end on jack stands, spin tires and look for loose suspension parts. Eliminate the brakes, shocks or bearings from the mix of possible variables.

 

i had dried out wheel bearings squeak and work fine!

 

Stay outta mud dude. Creates more problems than you could ever imagine.
Good to see you back in the forum.

Better job, more cash = more jeep stuff.

 

Is it a squeak or several squeaks like from a mouse or 1 long continuous high pitch hum through the whole turn. Have you been into those axles and hubs yet, or is everything untouched like it came from the factory. Check your lugs and make sure they are tight. I hate squeaks. Some you just can't get rid of.

 

if you have been playing in mud lately i would guess something stuck in the area like a stick, rock or clay mud clump full of grit and when ya turn it rubs. If it only does it when ya turn the wheel. Like Peter said a squeak will drive ya nuts. And Bob is right, mud is fun but its the devil! lol It will ruin your seals and bearings and such.

 

Good to be back man! And yea way better job then dunkin haha. Found out what it was its just a little stiff under the jeep wd40 helped with it alot the noise hasnt come back yet it was a tad dry but all good to go now! And i love the mud dont go to crazy with it just enough to have fun and get dirty! Thanks for all the replys guys!

 

I havent touched the axles and hubs yet sadly. And tightend the lugs all it needed was a little wd40 right next to wheel no squeaks now so back to play i go!

 

WD40. Should be in everyone's tool box. Lol.

 

Exactly and a can in everyones jeep lol just incase you need it

 

Had a squeak on mine only when I was turning turned out to be the ball joints

 

Yea the squeak is back kind of and wd40 didnt really help it this time starting to thing its the ball joints.

 

Yo Billy. Maybe a mud issue. Lol. Sorry Bro. Gotta bust you on this one. Mud in your balls (joints) will create squeaks. If the squeaks are happening in turns and on bumps. Then it could definitely be your balls. Balls Joints that is. But it could be another issue too.

 

JKBob if you had more mud on your balls (joints) you'd be squeakin too on dem rocks

 

Yeah. But I stay outta the mud. I know better. Well, there was that one time in the mud with them Jersey Rock Girls. And Dude.....well....im not going there. But it's all good.

 

I was dieing the hole time. Im goin to a buddys house and checking it out now

 

And im still trying to find a way to fix this stupid zipper on my back window. Its pretty f'd up!!

 

So let me get this right. You were trying to clean the mud off your ball (joints) and your zipper got stuck. Ummm. Now that's a problem. Do didn't get your ball (joints) caught in it did ya? That may be a post for another thread.

Does any one have experience with their ball (joints) caught up in the zipper?

 

I can always count on reading a goofy post from you bob lol back window zipper

 

Im to the point where i wanna just order a back window lol
