    i have a metal scraping noise coming from the visinity of my right front cv housing/spindle/wheel bearing brake caliper. it only happens when im going super slow i speed up and it goes away but going slow it sounds horrible and pops(when it pops it kinda jerks to the right? its super loud. i think its my right front wheel bearing or cv axle but im not sure. i parked the truck i was scared to drive it. it just randomly went from working perfectly fine no noose driving nice, parked in mcd's and ate came back out to drive and it started doing this, does anyone have any ideas anything would be greatly appreciated. by the way i have a 6 inch fabtech kit on the truck

    They're improperly designed and will tear open the frame rail after some time, letting the motor move all around in the engine bay. :eek:
