so ever since ive lifted my jeep and put tires on it. ive noticed this noise has gotten worse. i have a 3 inch spacer lift and 35 inch BFG MTs. The noise is a high pitch squeal. it doesnt do it all the time, but occasionally while im driving. i have a 6 speed manual. i thought maybe it was a belt, but its not that. it sounds like theres a nut being dragged on the ground while i drive at 40+mph.
i have no idea what it is. any ideas?

 

Brake sensor hitting the rotor or maybe there is rock/pebble stuck somewhere. Where does it sound like is coming from?

 

You do have wheel spacers on for those stock wheels right?

 

The noise sounds like it is under my jeep from like right under the front of it to the back. It does it not constantly but close to it. I do have wheel spacers on. 1 inch and a half.

Ouch! put your drain plugs in and wear a jock strap.

 

Have you checked your brake pads?

 

It doesn't do it when I brake though. It does it while im just driving not braking. Could it still be my pads?

 

If it's a brake sensor it doesn't matter if your braking or not. Where is the noise coming from? What speed? Turning or driving staight ahead? Left right front rear? A bit more details may be helpful

 

it starts doing it at like 30mph + itll do it if im turning or going straight. it sounds like its under the jeep towards the back of it.

 

anyone?
