Clicking Front Hub
CLICKING FRONT HUBS Please could someone throw a light on my problem, I have a Grand Cherokee, with auto box, when i shift from low range to high range i get a clicking noise from the front hub when cornering, a friend told me that after using low range shift to high and reverse a short distance, it will reset the box, i did it and it worked, surely this cannot be correct, is this what i have to do every time or is there a problem some where in the drive chain?

If the ujoint was installed wrong thats the problem sometimes you will dislodge a pin bearing and will not know it, You should check your tire splash guards too if you lost a fastener on that a 1/4 inch is all you need to rub a tire, and the noise is really a laud grind. I had that problem and couldn't believe thats all it was a little tire rub makes a lot of noise.

x3. Sounded like u-joint. Couldn't help to have them inspected and it's usually free. I usually take to at least two places if you don't do it yourself and it's still usually free. ~good luck
