Need some help

I have a 03 Eddie Bauer edition Expidition.

First problem is the rear air. When you turn the blower on to the rear, there is a clunking noise coming from the rear passenger wheel well. It sounds to me like there is a door or something that is being told to close to switch from cold to hot, and it just keeps on doing it.


Second, when making a turn, either direction, I feel a grinding from the front end. 2 wheel drive. Would ball joints be doing that?

Also what replacement brakes and rotors do ya'll recommend to get rid of the brake dust on the front wheels?

Thanks!

On the first two, I can't help. As far as the brakes go I got my brakes and rotors from Pep Boys. Nothing special, just regular stuff. I asked earleir about the pros/cons of upgrading the brakes/rotors. The feedback was to use regular stuff because, as you know, it is a heavy beast and will eat up anything you put on it. I'll tell you one thing. NO MORE DIRTY FRONT RIMS!!!!!!

If you replace your rotors go to tirerack and buy the plain brembo rotos. The should be around $66 a piece.
