Hi guys, im new on here, hailing all the way over the pond from the uk...a friend of mine told me to come on here as i have a problem with my 1998 XJ
my car was knocking from the front right wheel (your passenger side i think) so had a look and the U-join was preished...replaced that hoping it would solve it, but it still carrys on..
basically when im driving it 'clunks'...its definately rotational as the speed of the clunk is dependant on the speed of the car...it does it in all the gears and in reverse...
i took the wheel off and turned it manually but couldnt feel or hear anything, so it only seems to happen when its under the load of the car...
there is no play in the wheel from side to side as i replaced the bareing..
i ahve some old looking bushes, but there is no play in the steering, i got someone to turn the wheel while i had a look...
i was wondering if it was the front diff or somehting to do with the brakes, as when i have my foot on the brake and turn the wheel, you can hear the whol side creeking and stuff...but i have replaqced them and it all fits fine!
im at my wits end over here..any advice would be appreciated guys..
