Hello all,
I am brand new to the forum. Before posting I did some looking and around and it seems like a pretty cool site. What brought me here was a suggestion from a friend to try a forum about an issue Im having with my ram that no one can seem to figure out. Ive been to three dodge delarships and three "every man garages" and a self proclaimed ram expert and no one can seem to figure this out. SO here is the issue:
When I turn the steering wheel to the right, I hear two to four cracking sounds depending on how far right I go. When I turn the wheel back to neutral, I hear the same amount of cracks. You can somewhat feel it in the floor board just a little. This only happen when turning to the right, everything is normal when turning to the left. It wont do it when the truck is sitting still unless i pull up with the wheen turned to the right, put it in park. then turn the steering wheel back to neutral. It will do it then, but if I am sitting still and turn the wheel to the right it wont do it.
I have replaced the axle, and lower control arm (on the advise one of the dealerships) on the driver side (where the noise emmits from). checked the brake shield. dealerships said tie rods, ball joints, upper arms are all fine. Any help is appreciated and I look forward to talking ram brand with you all. Thanks!
