I couldnt find what I was looking for using the search. I have a 00' XJ 4.0 4x4 NP242. Problem is when going around corners at low speeds(parking lot) the tires make a chirping noise. I believe it goes away when I have 4h engaged, been a couple weeks since Ive tried it.
Looking under it today I noticed a few things. First is that the u-joint/cv joint? for the axle on the drivers side appears to be toast. While holding the tire and turning the drive shaft there is alot of play in that joint. Could this cause the tire chirp Im hearing?
Second question is when turning the drive shaft(front) both wheels turn in the same direction. When spining the drivers side tire the drive shaft spins but the passenger tire doesnt spin. Is this normal? Seems odd to me.
