front end noise

[tshelton18]

I just got a 2019 and its starting to make a rubbing grinding noise on my front end and ideas what it could be? I can hear it and fill it. after stopping or even slowing down it will stop.

Wheel bearings. take it in for warranty.

 

[tshelton18]

ok thanks

Just changed wheel bearings and it’s still making the noise and grinding. Differential? Front-end?

put it up on good jacks with it stable. Run in gear and listen to where it is coming from. I would tie it down for sure. May just be a rock caught in the brakes.

I had to grease my spindle bushing on the drivers side. It was making a grinding noise.

Yup.

I had to grease my spindle bushing on the drivers side. It was making a grinding noise.

It was the right spindle bearing/brass bushing. Thanks!

 

[NoDak]

The noise was coming from the right spindle bearing/brass bushing. I just didn’t go in quite deep enough on the bearing!
Also, there are grease zircs on the rear wheels that we didn’t know about!

there should be 6 grease points if you haven't found them all yet.

 

[NoDak]

Do you mean zerks or places in the bearings? Thanks!

zerks. Two on the sides that are easy to see. One on each drive shaft and the two on the rear wheels that you found.

If you use Facebook, join one of the roxor groups. There's a lot of good info there.

There’s 8 zerks. 4 spring bolts. 2 driveshaft slip joints and the 2 outer wheel bearings on rear axle.

@Partyman1971: you mention "two on the sides that are eaay to see". Where exactly are these two zirks? Is it one of these? If not, just add to this list.
I am aware of zirks at:
- 2 leaf spring bolts, front axle
- 2 leaf spring bolts, rear axle
- 2 rear axle bearings (1 left, 1 right)
- 1 drive shaft, front
- 1 drive shaft, rear

Thats all of them I believe. Sorry I wasn't accurate.
