Hello everyone, iv been having some issues with my front susopension lately. Im getting a wierd rattle / chinging sound coming from the front suspension both Left and right sides. It's a wierd rattle, kind of sounds like a glass cup full of screws flopping around. I hear it over every single little bump.

When I locked the hubs, but still in 2wd, the noise went away completely. Once they are unlocked they start to make the noise again. I know for a fact that both CV boots are torn and the inside of the tires are warn down. There is also vibrations accompanied by the rattling from 10-25mph My truck drives straight BTW. I can also hear the sound by kicking the tire when the truck is stopped.

I also tried to find play in the wheel but nothing its very firm so i doubt its a wheel bearing.

Any advice would be appreciated, thanks

 

if it is still ifs, try seeing if the axles have any play in the hub. grab the axle and see if there is any movement in the spindle. if there is you either need new spindle bushings or they need a good lubing.

 

either way ifs or sa it sounds like you have a broken hub

 

took apart the hub for the first time with josh aka 4runnerguy and found that the hub had no grease left inside. Stuffed it full of grease and no more rattle. thanks for the tips guys
