Grinding or body vibe sound coming from rear pass side only when doing a sweeping left curve and only when going uphill. Almost sounded like exhaust component vibrating against unibody, but exhaust is clear around body. Any ideas?

Is the tailpipe rubbing on the leaf pack (retaining bolt)? That's what that sound is on my XJ. It was fine with the stock leafs...only appeared after the lift.

Sounds kinda like wheel bearings to me. Is it kind of a hollow grinding sound?

Everything on the extraction side of things is clean. Kinda with you on this bobb. Thinking it's time to be yanking off that passenger rear side. Thanks for the input. This probably should have been on the OEM thread.

Sounds like the wheel bearings to me also! Don't just do one side. Replace both sides, they both have the same wear on them! Fairly easy job with the right tools.
