Alright, so I've had this noise that has been driving me nuts. I finally got the Jeep in the garage today to try and hunt it down. It's a metal to metal noise that occurs when I go over decent bumps. It is coming from the front right fender area. So I crawled all over my front end today. Everything was tight, nothing looked out of spec. So I started to bounce on that side to try and duplicate the noise, at which point I leaned on my hood.....

It didn't take much force to duplicate that sound. So I know the bumps I am hitting at 45 mph are having no problems accomplishing that. I'm pretty sure its the striker. The passenger side does the same thing, just not as bad. It's only a $15 part from the dealer, so I'm not to worried about it. But I just thought I would see what everyone thinks. Striker, or another part?
