ok, so im new to jeeps, and i just purchased one a few months back. an 88 cherokee laredo. i have already had some problems with it, but it hasnt had to be towed just yet. i have a trip coming up in october, and before then, i want to fix the latest problem im having before i get stuck in the middle of nowhere.
like i said, this is my first jeep. i have heard lots of good and bad things about jeeps. like mileage for instance, supposedly bad, but im pulling around 22 MPG highway out here in utah. maintenance, yeah that one's been a bit tricky. its a bit crowded under there. it took me a week of struggling, busted knuckles, fits of anger, a sprained ankle, and about 100 bucks to change the rear main seal.
ok sorry off to my point. the latest problem or at least i think its a problem in development, has been occuring since janurary. i hear a clicking sound from the undercarriage. it almost sounds like the u-joints from the driveshaft, but im thinking more likely that its from the front axles. any ideas on how to find out for sure? and what can i expect this to set me back?
