ok so i have a scrubing sound comeing from the front driver side wheel
i just changed the brakes and its still doing it. now it gets werd when i turn the stering wheel i feel it getting tighter and looser while turing the wheel but only wile moving slow (under 15mph) and wile moving the wheel
i can sustane the turn and not feel a thing but when coming out of the turn ie turning the wheel it comes back until i get the car strate again

now i know i have a bad tie rod end on the passenger side could that be it? or could it be a cv joint?

 

If you have a lot of miles on the car and you plan to drive it for a while I would go through the entire front end. You already invested in the brakes just finish the job with a new front end and you will be good to go. I know if money is an issue this might not be an option. Good luck!!

 

money is a issue thats why i would like to pin point the problem so i can fix just that

 

well start inspecting the parts... i wouldn't think its the cv shaft as you would normaly get a clicking noise from them...but i would deff check for play in the tie rod end... you can do that by jacking up the front of the car(supporting with jack stands of course) and grab the front side of the tire and the back side tire and wiggle it back and forth... look at the tie rod where it bolts to the spindle and make sure that there is no play there they should be tight and move together... remember no slop... if there is slop the tie rod is bad.... another thing to check is the wheel bearings one of them could be bad... easiest way to check them is take your tires off and making sure the car is in neutral and spin the hub if it spins nice and smooth then its good don't worry to much about the amount of force it takes to spin it it should take a fair amount just check to make sure it spins smoothly any roughness or play in it and its time for a wheel bearing....

 

well thats the thang i know my passenger side tie rod is bad but i dont know if thats my only problem. i dont know if just a tie rod would caus so many things.

im going to fix the tie rod but i want to fix any thang els that might br rong at the same time so i only have to get it alined once. that cost to much to have to do it 2 or 3 times. im poor but i may have to pay a front end guy to tell me whats rong

 

ok fixed tie rod end that helped the viberation but the other problems are still there

 

lol itz funy

 

whats funny? i dont think my front end problems are funny.

 

Are the lug nuts properly installed? Are you tires wearing evenly?


Jack up the front end and see if there is any play in your tires. Look for excessively worn bushing the the control arm and sway bar. Make sure nothing is loose. This should be doen before having someone else diagnose your dilemma.
