A few noises coming from the KJ now (30k miles on it)
Whenever the jeep goes over a large bump or abrupt dip in the road (example: speed bump) I get an awful squeaking/crunching/shrill sort of noise that sounds like heavy pieces of rusted metal grinding and smashing against each other. This only occurs when I get the whole front end (both wheels) over the dip/bump at a decent speed (enough speed to actually make the suspension compress and rebound). As far as I can tell, the noise is coming from only the front end. Any diagnosis would be appreciated.
Whenever I come to a stop or accelerate there is the slightest thud like theres a small rock rolling around on a skid plate coming from the front end. Is this normal? Ive read various posts of people having this noise as well.
If you need more description just ask.
The squeek is the sway bar bushings
fix is silicon lube
the thud or knock is normal ,or at least I hope it is
our KJ has done it from day 1
When it comes to problems like this ,noises
The easy answer is to turn up the radio and when it breaks fix it
