Hey everyone..

Bought a 98 XJ earlier this year and its been great.

Replaced the oil filter housing seal as it was leaking like a civ, and outside of my valve cover gasket, the engine is pretty leak free and runs like a champ.

I do however have a noise in the front end that sounds like a bad wheel bearing, or something along those grinding/rubbing noise. Worsens when I turn.

I am capable of doing work on my own, but right now I am WAY too busy restoring two vintage Audis and working on my Norton motorcycle.

Anyone know anyone, or anyone up for making some extra $$$ by helping me out?

Id rather not go to a dealership if I dont have to.!

Thanks for the suggestion but I work many many hours and just don't have the time.
Driggs I'll let you know if there is anybody that wants to do it. Also tried craiglist?
