crunching noise - 09/12/06 06:01 AM

When I fully turn my X in either direction there is a noise like metal rubbing metal. I looked underneath and tried to find wore off paint etc.. I saw what looked like stoppers for the steering. Is that what is making this noise?? How can I stop it from making this noise?? Please help.

Hit them with greese. There are some in front and back of the wheel. Mine did the same thing and this fixed it.

Good look.

Yeah - there's two stops per side, front and back of the hub areas...so, you have 4 of them to grease.

I like the Mobil1 grease, it doesn't come off when it gets wet as easily, and it completely stop the noise.

PS - the stops are adjustable, you can tun them in/out as needed if you change tire sizes/get rub, etc.
