Front tire rattle - Help
When I kick the front passenger tire it rattles. The driver side tire does not. I removed the problem tire and it seems that the brake is also loose. The loosened part is the universal joint coming from the axle it appears. I had changed the wheel hubs previously possibly loosing the axle or pulling it out too far. What is the problem? How do I fix it?

remove that tire, and re-check every nut and bolt along the way. start at the axle nut and work your way back. also, do you have a rubber mallet? try tapping around at various areas, caliper, steering knuckle,etc.
Like it was suggested I removed the tire and removed the axle nut the was basically "finger" tight. So I tightened it up and the rattle ceased. Thank you.
