    CV replacement, new vibration -- resolved

    Is yours lifted? mine has a 2 inch lift installed and am suspecting that this is because the grease will remain on the inside while the cv travels on the outside part and so grease not reaching the moving parts.

    Any ideas on what these parts are.....again?

    may be ac pipe if it was disconnected or removed.

    CV replacement, new vibration -- resolved

    Will do. I will re grease them 1st as I'v noticed that if I squezed the boot and take it for a short drive is I think there is some improvement so will try that 1st.

    CV replacement, new vibration -- resolved

    did you find the cause of the vibration? I have the exact same problem with mine after replacing both drive shafts with aftermarket ones. Before installing I noticed they were a bit stiff but tought it was because they were new and they would loosen with use as grease would fill the gaps but...

    New problem. noise from front (SOLVED!!!)

    FINALLY SOLVED!!! Changed the front driver side driveshaft and noise gone. 1st run after installing drive shaft it sounded like the drive shaft was wobbling or not centered. That was a terrible feeling then on 2nd run everything gone. No noise. Smooth and better than before. Also replaced...

    New problem. noise from front (SOLVED!!!)

    Tire wear has been present since before the lift kit and I have also installed chamber bolts so angle is corrected.

    New problem. noise from front (SOLVED!!!)

    What I have noticed also is tire wear on the outside of both front tires and back ones which I assume where changed and put there from the front end. But wear was present since I baught the car not just after the lift kit and have never heard these sounds before.

    New problem. noise from front (SOLVED!!!)

    Had to postpone todays inspection so will be doing it next week. Both tie rods have been replaced together with track rod ends. Ball joints look good. Only thing un touched are shocks, cv joints and shafts together with inner cvs. So only lots of money worth of parts remains to be changed if...

    New problem. noise from front (SOLVED!!!)

    That's exactly my taught but upon inspection they look good. today we're raising it on stands and track the sound. and seriously considering changing both as it might be that they wear in a certain pattern and when raised that pattern no longer does the job. hope to sort it out once and for all.

    New problem. noise from front (SOLVED!!!)

    It was a very short run but on longer trips its more regular and more consistent with drive speed than engine revs. Frequency of noise is like when you have something stuck to the tyres such as a bolt or some stone. But again only when accelerating hard and not when cruising or idleing. And...

    New problem. noise from front (SOLVED!!!)

    This is a picture taken from the engine bay from above on the passenger side of the fuel lines. Feel lines appear closer then they really are to the gear selector but tested several times and they don't touch at all. Also there is enough space in between them and the left drive shaft and inner...

    New problem. noise from front (SOLVED!!!)

    I moved the fuel line from above the chasis to the side so just 10mm or less and tied them with cable ties to keep them steady. Cutting the extra length of the cable ties. But will try the padding. As for the posts I will leave it on 2wd as it does it also in 2wd and raise only the front end...

    New problem. noise from front (SOLVED!!!)

    It is actualy slightly louder than in the video. Have checked again the cables and fuel lines situated near the driverside steering arm. as I have slightly moved these. And sounds like something solid more than a pipe or cable. Tomorrow Im taking it to a friend of mine. Will be putting it on...

    New problem. noise from front (SOLVED!!!)

    Will be trying today as rear bolts where damaged and couldn't take it off. And when I saw the play in the IRD I stopped looking for tge problem and removed the IRD for repairing. Which ended up being in very good condition. And also because this happened after the lift. Could also be a...
