Post subject:  Light Grinding

When im going over 10mph or so and come to a stop (no brakes applied, just rolling *and* with brakes applied), I hear a gentle grinding that feels like it's up front. Almost feels like something is stuck in my axles or something. When going up a slight incline *parking garage* at a slow speed, the same thing happens.

Anyone have ideas on where to start looking? I've gotten under the jeep and there doesn't seem to be any leaking going on. I do know that my passenger-side LCA is bent, but not too bad.

Thanks.

I've been getting some light grinding in my rear-end. I'm not sure what I have, and I'm not sure what you have.

My first guess for you is that some kind of U-joint is going bad. Had a u-joint go bad on the parents van when I was in school. It would grinde lightly and get louder when I would turn. Not even sure myself how that's set up on a KJ, but u-joint my first guess if the sound is up front.

By the way, it's grinding in my KJ's rear-end, not my rear-end :shock:
