    Replaced Front Hub/bearing assembly now have a CLUNK!

    My Jeep is a 2000XJ. I find it funny that two different hub assemblies made from two different manufacturers are giving me the same result. It is only when I tourque down the axle nut that the axle shaft will pull out a bit. Maybe I am doing something wrong?

    Whats your favorite tire?

    Goodyear MT's!! Read some reviews on TireRack. I feel if you purchase a top brand MT tire then it comes down to splitting hairs and personal opinion. I am a Goodyear and Bridgestone fan.
