Hey everyone,

I recently upgraded to 35s a week or two ago. Went trailriding at topless day. Then it seemed a few days later my jeep was making this "grinding" noise almost. It makes the noise when its in park. When I reverse. And when I accelerate but then once I get to like 20 mph it stops and then I dont hear it again until I start my jeep up again and go about my day. Any idea what it could be? I have heard so many different things lol

 

could be a rock stuck between the rotor and the thin metal guard.

 

alright I will try that. Also forgot to mention I have stock wheels and running spacers too if it plays a factor.

 

Can you pinpoint where its more coming from, there is a lot of things between the front and rear bumper that can make geinding noises.

 

Sorry. It is for sure coming from the front

 

Check your wheel bearings

 

What would I be looking for? Just warn down wear? I am a lady trying to tackle this myself so forgive my lack of knowledge haha

 

You say it makes it in Park? As in sitting still? That would rule out wheel bearings, or rotors. It could be a loose exhaust heat shield. Do you have a skid plate that could be contacting your exhaust crossover?

 

That's correct. If I park it overnight and start it in the morning it makes the noise in park, then as the day goes on it doesn't make the noise anymore. And naw no skid plate, I recently got a new exhaust installed also but when I crawled underneath everything is secured.

 

It's almost impossible to diagnose online, lol, so I'd take to somebody or at least have somebody crawl under it when it's making the noise in park, and narrow down where the noise is coming from. I'm willing to bet its vibration related.
