Hey Everyone,

My fiance's Jeep makes a clicking noise when turning left at slow speeds. I cannot for the life of me find anything wrong and I don't know where the noise is coming from other then the left side. The sound comes at regular intervals when making a smooth constant turn to full lock to the left. I originally suspected the U-Joint, which was bad but I replaced it and the noise is still there. I checked all the ball joints and tire rods and nothing feels loose. When I bought the Jeep it had a bad steering box so it had no power steering. I didn't hear the noise when I bought it but since I put a new box, new power steering pump and new lines the noise is always there. Anybody have an issue like this before?

 

So After looking for stuff, I finally found that he track bar bracket is missing a bolt and moves about a 1/4" when turning. I am going to assume this is causing the clicking... at least I hope.

 

Sounds like a solid place to start, check the u joints on the axle shafts as well they will click like nobody's business when they are going bad.

 

Also you can check all the bushings in the front end. Sometimes they can go out and cause clicking sounds also.
