I noticed a somewhat grinding, or metal to metal rubbing noise which sounds like its coming from my front pass. side wheel. not when I apply the brakes, but accelerating, and kinda like a growling noise or something, anyone ever have this?
Please ad ALL the info about your truck to your sig AND profile, Thank You.
Ive replaced all u- joints and the center pilot ball or what ever it is on the driveshaft, I also noticed that if I turn to right it stops, if im just cruising along and let of accelerator it makes the sound, but then if I slightly give it some gas to stay at a steady speed it doesn't do it. but I do think that caliper needs replaced because its the only one giving off the brake dust. Also could the u-joint that is on the axle behind the rotor cause this, I didn't change them but it is just a thought. How do I list my truck in my sig ?
no I haven't, gonna try to do that tommaro, had to go watch mud bog today. lol We had it on the lift and spun the tires but no noise, that's when we found the drivers side bearing making a slight snagging sound while spinning the wheel and that it had movement so I told the garage to replace it, is 50.00 to change it out a good price? I would do it but right now my hip is out 1 1/2 out of place, makes it rough to do anything like this. lol By changing the drivers side it did quiet down a little, but there is still something clearly wrong on passenger side. Thinking I may just order passenger side from rock auto(60.00) pick up a new caliper(I wanted to replace anyways) and maybe do the U-joint behind the hub.
Replaced u join t behing front wheels, new brakes, still doing it, wheel bearing has no play. It dont make a noise accelerating, just when I let off the gas
