Seems the Jeep forum I’m on is dead on the wj side.
Recently I picked up a 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7l with the full time quadratrac posi 4wd system. The best part is it was FREE! Body is great, no rust at all.. it was driving awesome, started right up, has an exhaust manifold leak but I’ll get to that later.
This morning I was driving to work going about 25 mph and suddenly I heard this very loud POP, I felt it too, like something let go or something was bound and freed up idk. After that I have a constant knock in the front left wheel area just forward of my feet. Now I figured a u joint or something gave loose but the front driveshaft seems just fine. I wasn’t able to grab the cv axle fully but from what I could get it didn’t feel like it was loose or anything, boot isn’t torn anyway.
I just don’t know, I’m brand new to Jeep’s and not sure if I should be looking at something simple or if it’s something major.
