Default Rub /vibrate

97 dodge ram. 1500


Recently just had front end ball joints replaced.


At about 40 mph and up, anytime I turn the wheel slightly to the left, it sounds and feels like the left tire is rubbing. Only on a slight turn, no other time. No signs of rubbing though.

What could it be?


Also, any time going over a rough road, full of potholes, I hear a clicking notice coming from what sounds like the front end.
Any thoughts?

Not mechanically savvy.

I would check and see how close the dust shields were to the rotors on the front brakes....

Also, check the shock mounts, the shocks REALLY need to be torqued to not make noise over bumps.
