Hey guys, new member here. I recently bought a 2001 Ram quad cab with the 5.9 magnum. Its got the factory offroad package, and has 100,000 miles on it.
Anyway, when I accelerate slowly from a stop I hear a grinding noise about half the time. It seems to be coming from the drivers side, toward the front of the vehicle. If I accelerate from a stop slowly I'll hear it, if I give it a little more gas than usual, I don't usually hear anything.
nah jack it up pull the tire and wheel off and spin the front rotor if its not scrubbing than thats not it. see if you can get somone to stand buy your truck when you take off, they might can get a better idea of where its coming from. good luck let us know
