Forum:
when i engage 4 wheel drive on full lock i have a nasty knocking/ grinding noise from front o/s front hub/ wheel
on 2 wheel drive it is fine no noise at all
i have replaced the wheel bearing,& free wheeling hub but still that noise is there
but only on 4 w/d on full lock
any ideas
re:knocking in 4wd
that happens me too in 4wd.but when i reved the engine up it was ok.
it might be your cv-joint.. i
it might be your cv-joint.. i replased my left one and clangig stopped to re-appear in right..
full lock
mine does that too by reducing lock a little it stops which suggests to me it's the CVs are worn, however from browsing the forums it could be axle windup which happens on none slippery surfaces. Windup breaks things and you need to lift the front wheels off the ground to unload it from what I read. Hope this of some help!

the bug is alive... it grows within you, slowly takes over your mind, you become a 4x4 addict, live and breathe the mud
