ratty Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 I've been getting this crunchy sound when I accelerate from a stopped position or when I turn. It's hard to describe, but it doesn't sound like a grinding. More like if you cracked your back or knuckles sound. I can feel it too when I'm driving. It's not too loud, sort of muffled. I checked my u-joints and they're still good, I got new tie rods and bushings too. I don't even know where to look next. Thanks. Figured it out: Turns out my trans mount was bad which was making the exhaust pipe hit the trans bracket when I accelerated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wounded_Fighter Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Is it only when turning one direction? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOrnbrod Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Jack up each front wheel separately and check for lateral play and/or noise when you spin the wheel. Sounds like a wheel bearing problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
