I been here on and off and of course i come running back when I need help. When i turn my wheel all the way to the left or the right and start moving i hear really loud metal ticking, I was wondering how I might go about fixing it or what is causing the problem.

Maybe help us out and tell us what year your driving. Info will only help.

Now, I will bet that your hitting the steering stops. A little grease will fix them right up. Above the upper a arm if I remember correctly. Have a look and you'll find them.

 

Yep what he said. Just a little grease on your steering stops will fix it.

lithium based chassis grease, and i will just give you a heads up before a mod does, but this is a family site, keep track of the language. hate to see somebody get in trouble on their second post.

 

but wont lithium greese just come off once it rains? i used some water proof greese that i bought to use on my manual hub rebuild and haven't heard from those little buggers since, even in all the rain that we have here in western Washington.

 

lasted a while on a friends truck, he re greased them about every 6 mo. when he rotated the tires.

 

Thanks Joez. I'm guessing the offending post was edited already since my radar didn't catch anything...

We're watching....

 

I think you better have your radar recalibrated there, cebby!
