Hello everyone, it's been a while since i've posted (laptop was in the repair shop).

Well i have a problem with my 02 liberty 3.7L limited edition. The problem seems to be coming from the rear end when making turns, and are more frequent on 4 Full time 4wd, again only when taking turns.

At first I thought I had a limited slip diferential, and I took a trip to chrysler jeep to get some friction modifier for the clutch paks in rear end differential. sales rep then informed me I have a Trak loc in my differential.

Any ideas on what the problem could be?

Pretty sure the bushings in the rear lower control arms are shot - your symptoms are a common complaint when the bushings need replacing.

Dealer can do it or you can purchase the bushings from RockAuto.com (supporting vendor here on JeepKJ) and have them pressed in at a local shop.

alright I may need to change the title of the post or start a new post.

what im getting is actually more of a vibration/grinding underneath when turning and prominent driving more in 4wd.

yeah that's it.

and where is the tag that identifies my rear end differential? can't seem to find it.
