| Post subject: | Noise in 4wd |
I hope someone here could help... A few week ago I went 4 wheeling in the Pines in New Jersey, had a great time going in some deep puddles that went 1/2 the way up the door. I have going there alot and never had a problem. Now when i engage 4wd Lock and accelerate I here a squeak from the driver side, but no noise from the front end in 2wd. Now I know that the pines have sugar sand in the water could I have messed up the driver side CV joint? Anyone else have the same issue? What should I check? Thanks, John M. |

If you were going through water half way up your door i would check/change your transfer case and differential fluids for one. Not saying this is your problem, but water could have gone down their breather lines. |

Also check your cv boots for cracks or tears. |

As for the CV boots I will pull the wheel off tomorrow, but its funny no noise in 2wd at all just under power in 4wd. |

So I had some time after work today to take the wheels off and see what was causing the noise... The CV boots look good no crack or tears. It took a little hunting to trace out the noise but I found it....  found this stick wedged between the front drive shaft and front mount  it only rubbed a little bit on the bolts and flange kind of hard to see in pic Took jeep out for a little spin in 4wd and no noise at all back to normal  Thanks, John M. |
