Well most of you should know what the weather was like today well after I got off work a buddy of mine and I went wheeling. After that was all said and done I went and washed the mud off my TJ well now when I drive there is a very loud sound comming from the driver side wheel, dont know what it is sounds like just screaching almost like a school board...Think some thing is freezing or frozen? or did something break. Didnt wheel to hard today just some mud holes and hills.

rocks in the caliper/brake pad? Jack it up and move your wheels back and forth. Should help out.

mikeyours · 02-12-2008, 09:31 PM

Ill go check that out now

mckeddie · 02-12-2008, 09:41 PM

i'd guess something in the wheel or brake too.

Mud seems kind of obvious huh..

mikeyours · 02-12-2008, 09:45 PM

Well yeah mud probably frozen mud

mikeyours · 02-13-2008, 05:33 PM

hahah lets try this again. the Red arrows "wheel studs" and the part that they are pressed in move or spin when the tire rotates correct? The rotor with the Blue arrows goes over the studs. The Studs are just moving at little back and forth in the rotor holes.

All statements above are correct.
However, studs should not move. Ever.
If you can grab and "move" a stud, there is a problem.
The hub that the studs are pressed into should only "spin", not wiggle.

I am in Middletown off Oxford State Road, but if you want to drive up here some evening (6-10pm) this week I would be more than glad to take a look & tell you what is wrong (if anything). My number is 513.967.7091, leave a message with your number if I don't answer. - Jason
