| Post subject: | low thumping noise on deceleration |
Hi, I have a 2006 liberty lifted with OME HD all round. Just recently there has been a low thumping noise that I only notice on deceleration. It is not all the time but I do hear it only on deceleration. It is a thumping noise that sounds like either a suspension or drivetrain thump. The dealer thinks it is normal drive train noise, however as it has only just started, I know that is not the case. It sounds like it is coming from the front of the jeep. Anyone have any ideas what this might be? Thanks |

Check the rear boot on the front drive shaft. When mine went out that was when I heard the noise. |

I have checked the boot but it looks good. The front boot on the front driveshaft does seem to be covered in a thin coat of oil. And the front diff in general also has a thin coating of oil on it. What am I looking for specifically? A tear in the boot? Play in the joint? Thanks |

Whats the rear boot look like ? Mine was almost gone when I checked it. Really looked like there was never one on it. Was fine 4000 miles before |
