Noise
I'm gonna try to post again.
I have a noise that shows up once I hit RR tracks or a pothole. Kinda sounds like a hub dragging. The noise stays until the truck is just about stopped. I took out the main gear in the hubs and the noise still comes back. I appreciate any help that I can get,
Mike

Are they the factory hubs or aftermarket ? Are all brake bolts tightened: caliper, caliper brakets ? Is it both sides or one side ? So, when you come to a stop, it sort of "resets itself" ?

Somethings not right. When you finally figure this out I'd like to know. I'm waiting for someone else to chime in that has had this problem. I don't think a bearing hub would do that, but you never know.

Sorry, didn't mean to make it sound like you said it was the hub bearings rugermack, just making a general statement.
I've seen disc brakes do this (make noise when hitting a bump) when the pads get worn down a bit. It should change or even stop if the brakes are applied if this is the case. Not a serious issue, but annoying.
Otherwise, the front axle U-joints may have a problem.
