Cannot get howl from RF to go away.

I've changed at least a dozen or more on KJs and never once needed a puller
maybe he's never done one before and over thinking the whole process
Very easy to swap
Do you have a new CV to install as well if the old ones splines are bad??

That's probably the case, almost no one knows what this part is :icon_lol: I don't have a CV yet but if I need one I have them right down the road getting a new one is no issue. I've been trying to convince him up and down that it's not as big of a deal as he thinks it is. I'm probably going to do the axle bearing in the process also.

If I was still living up that way would only be 130 miles away and we'd have you knocked out and going in no time at all
BUT
260 miles to my place now :happy175:

That kinda sounds like the deaf leading the blind. :icon_lol:

It'll be a snow balls chance in hell that I go to Autozone for anything.

Used to be in Toledo area, now east of Columbus

Update; Most parts are in, bought a new RF CV for the sake of the old ones splines. Got the intermediate and the axle seal.... The shaft bearing is what I still need though.

Can anyone elaborate or give me a part number to the outer axle shaft bearing, the one just behind the outer axle seal on the RF? I haven't torn it apart yet to compare to whats already in the axle so I hate to buy something that I won't use.

 

[ouroboros]

Update; Replaced the inner axle, RF CV, outer axle seal and the outer axle shaft bearing.... Noise still remains. Thoughts? :thumbsdown:

I believe there's a bearing behind that inner seal. How about that?

That's the outer bearing I described.

Yukon Master Overhaul kit for Dana "Super" 30 differential, Jeep Liberty front - RRP-YKD30SUPKJ

I'm planning to purchase this kit tonight and send my jeep to the local axle guys..... Is this kit worth it or not?

***** when you start to run out of things to replace.. I guess at least by the time I'm done with the damn thing I'll have a lot of new parts :shrug:

Did you ever get this resolved? I noticed I have a noise at around 75mph coming from the front. I believe mine may be the wheel hubs. I am not sure if the previous owner ever had them replaced at any point. I am interested to see if you were able to get it resolved and quieted down.

Thanks
