Rubbing sound from front end
Hey guys,
I have a rubbing sound coming from the front end. I initailly thought it was the lockouts because when I jacked the truck up and spun the tires with the ford lockouts in it made the sound. Then when I took the lockouts out the sounds was gone. I needed to replace them anyhow because even with a pair of pliers it was hard to turn. I went out, purchased and installed a pair of Warn Premiums. Much nicer lockouts by the way but the sound is still there. I have some play back and forth in the hubs which I just need to get another lock spring but that shouldn't be causing the noise because it was making the noise when in was all oem. What's causing the noise? If you have any ideas where to check it would be great. I have to go on a 1500 mile trip tomorrow through the weekend. Hope the truck holds up. Thanks guys and gals
