Second that on the caliper sticking. Jack up the car and put everything in neutral and compare the amount of force required to spin the tires.If it's a sticky caliper then you might be able to notice the wheel that's a bit harder to turn than the rest or just look for pads that are worn more...

How about the rear lower control arms? When i first got my jeep they were completely shot and when the car was moving forward it would pull to the right because the left one was so worn out it caused the rear axle to twist in a way that made the rear wheels point out a bit to the left...

Have you guys tried running some seafoam through the brake booster vacuum hose? It will clean up some of the carbon deposits and could fix the noise. There's a thread on here somewhere that describes the process to seafoam.

Have you looked at the sway bar bushings?

Just make sure to use some lube.....:gr_grin: But seriously though. Check your differentials for proper lubricant might be low or one of them might be on it's way out. I bet you if you push it towards 80-90mph the sound will come back at an octave higher My friend had a Cherokee that...

Check your bearings.

So if I plan to use it mostly as a DD and will be doing very little light/medium off-roading just stick with 85w-90?

Alright! Thanks guys.

I'm thinking of using valvoline syn-power. I have track lock, the bottle says limited slip, would I still need to add the friction modifier? Or is it good as is? Anyone have experience with this?

Haven't gotten a hold of a multimeter yet, none of my friends have one and my dad does but he's in the process of moving into a new house and all his tools are deep inside a moving truck.

Ok, I'm getting a new symptom, sometimes the driver's side switch will not do anything when I push it up. And sometimes it will lock instead of unlock. Worn out switch causing high resistance?

You'd have to fight my wife for it! You--> :lazer: <--My wife

Oh no! Goodbye everyone :Bye:

Just got my jeep a week ago and when I i first checked the coolant,I thought it was water. When I went to go buy some coolant (zerex g05) I noticed it was a clear golden color, when finally mixed 50/50 with water, it looks like... water...I went ahead and stuck my finger in the reservoir and...

Yes, take it back and demand he rechecks everything, the fact is, the transmission is still failing, so, no, he didn't fix it. When the transmission failed on an 04 avalanche my cousin has, he had to take it back several times because it would still have issues, the mechanic in question would...

In my first car(non jeep) the ignition switch wouldn't turn over the the engine so the idiot previous owner decided to bypass the ignition switch and hardwired a button to the starter motor. When the button started to fail on me I started to dig around and saw that the ignition switch was fried...

LCAs are in and the problem is solved! The old ones were terrible. On one of the bushings, the inner cylinder that houses the bolt had almost completely separated from the rubber, hanging on by just a few threads. So happy it runs stable now. Now on to other projects with this new(to me) Jeep...

LCAs are in early, I will be installing them this evening. Will update once done.\\:D/

Wouldn't the 05 manual be closer? That's what I've been looking at. I'll take a look at the 03 as well though. I wouldn't think it's that though, as i would assume the power cutoff would be a complete cutoff. When the locks start acting up they still wiggle when activated, they just don't...

There is no key cylinder on the tail gate.The sluggishness is across all the locks including the tailgate. The sluggishness only appears after having activated the locks a second time. I will volt check as soon as I get my hands on a multimeter. I accidentally left my current one in the car and...
