Tri_X_Troll Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 The comanche didn't do it when I first brought it home last week, this is a new sound. When I go full turn to the left there is a horrific grinding sound. I don't get it when turnign to the right, not even a little. I've checked the basics: the tires aren't rubbing the transfer case is in 2H It's not the power steering pump Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheech Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 I would be thinking a wheel bearing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akamcbird Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 check the axle disco. could even be loose vacuum line on the disco actuator. just a guess :dunno: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mvusse Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Could be brakes too, if you're real close to the metal tab that lets you know it's time to replace the pads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWLONGSHOT Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Check your steering linkages. Specifically your TRE's. I'll bet the pass side is making contact. It could be beginning to wear and getting some slop in it. CW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddzz1 Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Did you actually stop and check while it is happening? This happen to me too, but not all the time. The drivers side tire hits the lower control arm but not all the time. If i turned the wheel while stopped and checked the tire didnt rub. I finally stopped the truck and got out and checked while it wass happening and the tire was rubbing. For some reason at certain times the top of the tire leans out farther which causes the tire to rub. not sure why. I need ball joints and wil be doing the u-joints at the same time along with the hubs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tri_X_Troll Posted September 23, 2009 Author Share Posted September 23, 2009 Could it be the steering box? I would think a steering box would do it with the jeep stopped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
