Well guys we had a blast but something on my jeep's front axle or suspension is making a really awful noise. I had heard it once or twice a week ago and thought I was losing my mind because it didn't come back. I figured I'd have it checked out when I got the oil changed this week but on the end of the way home it got pretty bad. It's making this awful metal on metal scraping creaking noise on the front left side. I'm having it towed to the dealership tomorrow so no more damage is done driving it. Time to cross those fingers :bummed:

Great pics Lane looks like you whole front end was under water.
Like lane said use a hammer. that happened to mine the last trip with Lane and I hammered it flat till I could pull it and put on a new seal. Still no leak after 1.5 months. I also used Eddies Idea and filed the lip down so it wont snag again.
silly question.. but you sure it's not just mud in the brakes? after my dip in frog hole,i had some serious screeching.. does it go away/lessen when you hit the brakes?

what ever you have to get the metal to seal back to the RTV sealant thats on it will work. I got mine to stop leaking but I was due to replace my fluids anyhow and pulled the cover , got it as flat as i could and put on a new bead of sealant. alls good now.

It doesn't happen at all when we hit the brakes if that matters. After coming to a complete stop then going it makes the noise. I also hosed the crap out of it when I got home including the suspension, undercarriage, wheels, everything. I didn't want to move it because I'm afraid I'll break it more lol. I'm going to suck it up though and go drive it a few blocks and see what happens. I'm gonna hope it's something silly like this lol

Noise is still there... My stomach is quite upset about this. I don't notice anything but I'm completely new to this. Here are some pics maybe you can spot something I'm clueless about.
