So this has progressively gotten worse, at about 30mph and up my KJ makes a horrible rattling/banging noise from the front end, i can actually feel it in the steering wheel. Its been to the dealer twice and they cant "replicate" the issue. One dealer did say my Upper ball joint had some play, could this be the issue? My KJ also pulls to the left pretty decently. Its almost scary to drive now! Im afraid i might have a tire shoot off!

Have them pull both axles on the drivers side and check them out.

Took the KJ to the mechanic, he says that my Upper ball joint has some play to it, would this cause the rattle/shaking I feel? As i slow down/back off the gas, I can hear a rubbing/grinding now. Would this by my front Driveshaft?

Easy way to tell if it is the front drive shaft is to check the rear boot. That is the one that goes out most of the time and is a inside boot. Shine a flashlight on the toward back of the drive shaft and if the boot is ripped or gone. You will be able to see ball bearings if it's bad. Are you still going to Hannibal with us the end of april?
