went wheeling the other day no real problems on the trail. came back with no problems but now my front end is getting this weird rattling noise/ small vibration. its not death wobble or the beginning of death wobble but what do you guys think. i checked all the bushing and made sure everything is on tight so i don't know at this point

 

Bump

 

check your front end components for slop/play

 

It only happens when I accelerate if that changes anything

 

it could be the insides of your muffler or cat, my Dynomax Super turbo did that after like 3 months, and my cat does it now at take off, does it sound metal on metal mid pitch rattle? it should sound louder on the passenger side if it is this...

 

That could be the sound but what about the vibes. Like I said it only happens when accelerating and it's not like a death wobble thing. I have a 3" kit and it's been in for a month now and this is the first problem I've had that I have no idea

 

It's a jeep thing, you Wont understand.... (:

 

i'd crawl under and shake and pound on everything that is under there, thats about it for now really...

 

I'm thinking that somethings gotta be loose cause why else would it make the noise

 

Not trying to say I know for sure but... ur lift has been on for month? Maybe the new springs finnally settled and ur drive angles are out alittle bit. Did u use a t-case drop or anything like that.
Maybe that's it?? Or maybe u knocked the front end out of alignmen?

 

check your u-joints or cv-joints? one or both probably went bad. check both the driveshafts ones too.

 

CV joints?????? Realy. Lol.sorry had too. I think you meant ball joints since it is a solid front axle. Its ok man, I know what u meant.

 

It's all aligned but I think I figured it out. I was crawling around under it and one of my exhaust mounts towards the end rusted out and broke off so the pipes swinging around and hitting the frame which would explain why it only makes the noise when accelerating. I bought a new bracket today and I'm going to put it on after school tomorrow and I'll post if it worked or not
