just had a big long thread typed out and accidentally hit the back button, i dont think tonight can get much worse

basically

front end makes a rubbing type noise at moderate speed

sort of like a bump - de - dump - - - bump - de - dump

ive checked, about everything

(ball joints, sway bar, sway bar bushings, tie rod ends, wheel bearings)

i cant figure it out, it first started when i changed my spark plugs, i had the wheels off for 2 days if that helps

it sounds like its coming from the middle front or right front of the car

its sort of like a metal on metal or metal on hard plastic noise

i kept everything at proper torque specifications etc. also

 

man i hate when that happens. can never get the idea accross the same. does it stay in time with the motor or the wheels.

 

more with the wheels i think

it makes the noise about every 2-2 1/2 seconds

its especially when going over little bumps

 

probly better pull the tires back off and see if you can find anything thats not right. have you tried lifting it up and spinning the wheels to try and find it? is it just noise or is there a vibration or thunk?

 

i actually havent tried spinning the wheels, wow

and it sounds more like its from the suspension

im hoping i just didnt tighten the new hubs a put on properly or something like that

(as in not a wheel bearing)

 

I heard a similar noise when driving my uncles Jeep and it turned out to be the lug nuts were SUPER loose. It was after I took it to a tire shop for him so I'm guessing they just sucked at life. Does the sound speed up or slow down with your speed?
