The Lair

Wheel bearing = hub bearing?

 

YESSIR

 

Whoops, forgot my caps lock was on

 

I've been lifted. Squeak started after the last couple times wheeling.

 

If they are seized get ready with the sawzall and a BFH and some cussing and walking away for a bit because it's a total PITA to get bolts out that are seized in bushing sleeves. I can't count how many times that crap has happened turning wrenches no fun that's for sure. If you have a oxy/acetylene rig that makes life easier as well.

 

Eh mine didn't squeak until I started wheeling either just turn the radio up lol

 

I hate the noise. Its embarrassing

 

Oh that's definitely a bushing squeak. There is no grease fittings for your UCA bushings are there? That to me sounds like a dry urethane bushing squeak vs a rubber bushing squeak. If you don't have grease zerks in the UCAs at the bushings I highly recc drilling tapping and installing them. Urethane bushings need to be "wet" so to speak to not make noise. It's the nature of the beast when it comes to modifying your vehicle.

By the way that's nothing compared to my fully rigid mounted 240 that thing is pure race car sounding.

 

UCAs have zerks on the BJ but nowhere else. LCAs are OEM. Not sure if its upper or lower that's making noise. I'll bet lower. I had someone temporarily gusset my cam tabs with weld. They didnt drop my LCAs, and I think they cooked em.

Thanks for the tips

 

Ummm yeah they probably cooked them. You can take a long screw driver or something like that and put it on the control arm where the bushing is and then have someone jounce the truck to make the squeak and pinpoint which bushing it is. It's like having a stethoscope and will be loudest where the noise is.

 

@Bocsy44 is catching up lol

 

Quick add another 100 pages of gibberish for him to read through

 

These are exactly the type of noises I'm trying to make.

 

Do you know if it is only your HD that have these on sale?

Damn man you are desperate with everything turning into something sexual with you! You need to just get laid! You know it's pretty easy to take a broad home from the bar right probably easier than that tinder crap.

 

Dunno.
I’m gonna swing by my other go-to HD to see if I can find the same stuff. I want to buy out all the gear oil. They only had three qts at this first store.

 

oh I'm ready hahaha bought new blades for the sawzall and everything! hahaha no oxy torch tho but I will make due hahaha

and @Kemosabe I am all caught up! I'm slacking off on all the other threads I follow tho lol ooopsies! now that summer is here I find myself away from the computer more. working on my truck or my buddies car or sitting on a patio some where having some pints and some eats lol

 

That's the proper way to be enjoying summer! When it's a nice day out I'm on here less as well, since I'm usually out doing something on the truck.

 

LOL
