problem with steering
I helped a friend install an Aussie locker. This is my 5th Aussie locker I have installed. Tolerances were in spec and did final test to ensure it unlocks.
After we put the front axle back together and took it for a test drive it had acted a squirrely. if I turn from side to side the front end will dip on the driver's side. He came over tonight and I took it out for a test drive. I went over a bump and turned it, and there was a grinding sound coming from the driver side wheel. I have not had a chance to look at in any detail, but wanted to get some ideas before I started taking apart the wheel tomorrow.

Ok... he brought the jeep over tonight and I found that the u-joint on the driver side was loose inside the caps. I am not sure if that is causing the problem, but I will know more tomorrow.

the rear track bar was broken at the axle. Problem solved.
