Where is that bracket? I drove it today and it didn't do it at all. It's really odd. I have a feeling it's because of that bracket though.

I have the same exact problem except its when i turn left, i replaced sway bar bushings, u joints and went threw the diff, told my dad about it and he said its just a jeep thing, they all have their own unique sounds, i guess it all goes back to the old saying of its not broken dont fix it

Slide your hiney under the Jeep and watch/listen for noises as someone else turns the wheel back and forth. Tighten the track bar bracket just cuz.

They do, but I gotta get to bed now. If I do that I'll probably get a total of about 4 hours sleep for an 18 hour day. That won't go to well.
