I did notice that the cv boot was not attached so I have re packed it with grease and secured could it be the bearing ?
CV boot? Do you have a Grand Cherokee?

I put it on a rag and then scrubbed the windshield. Better control of where it goes that way.

So, leave the rear doors on and leave the windows rolled down.

My kids have been riding in the back with no doors since they were 3. If they're strapped in like they should be then arms and legs shouldn't reach the door.

If they're old enough to be strapped in correctly but still don't know better then they need to stay home.

Idk, maybe your kids have adult length arms.

My kids ride in the back with zero doors.
No need for all that. He has every right to parent however he wants. We answered his question, and he explained his reasons.

I misread his response.

At least all that typing I did didn't go to complete waste.

I was thinking he was concerned about leaving the back windows down. I see now that he'd like to keep the back doors on but the windows can be down.

I can see how that would be a concern on the roads.

Negatory. If the yoke is moving sideways relative to the transfer case your bearings are shot.

Just saw these replies. I try to prime it 3 times before turning it over and it still happens. If it does start it idles like dog ****.
