Ok so i have a 1998 Jeep cherokee Se with the 4.0 auto and no abs and its 2 wheel drive

the sound is a grinding sound that happens when i either let off the gas or get back on the gas while going down the road

So what i had was a jeep with the classic sagging rear springs so i went to a friend at skyjacker and talked to him about my options, he said a add a leaf with a rebuild of the sagging springs would fix the problem. So i got some 2 inch add a leafs and rebuilt the springs and put them on, now they said that the springs would sag back down to stock ride height but they havent so i pretty much have a 2 inch lift in the rear and to level it off some i added some 1.5 inch spring boosters for a temporary fix

the sound started right after i did the new rear springs and seems to have gotten better after i added the boosters to the front but no dice so far, it does it usually but not always, some help would be great

The angles on your driveshaft have changed with the lift. U-joints tend to take a "set", and can make noise when they're asked to perform at new angles...

so im assuming the answer to this is to just replace the u joints with heave duty ones and get a warranty on them cause they are gonna go out again


best possible fix
