So I finally figured it out after almost 2 months and a ton of money. The knock was the double Cardin cv on the driveline. I took it to the driveline shop twice too to have it checked and they told me that it was fine. I ran out of things that could cause the problem and decided to put the...

what can this be? as soon as I let off the brake and start rolling the knocking starts and become more pronounced with gas and speed. The wheels only turn about a quarter to a half rotation per every knock.

I replaced all the bearings in it. wheel, pinion, and Carrier bearings. still the same noise.

its a nasty Knock as soon as the wheels start to turn mainly under load

I rebuilt and balanced the front driveline and I dont even have it in right now.

i started thinking after taking off the inspection cover and looking at the flex plate and bolts. does the torque converter not turn unless the tires turn or does it spin the whole time while the motor is running even at idle? thanks

That is the one thing that I have not checked. I did check the Flexplate for cracks and made sure that the bolts were tight, but not the Torque Converter. Is dropping the Transmission any harder than dropping that transfer case?

Ok guys, I have a 1995 Jeep Cherokee XJ that is driving me nuts. It has a nasty knock that primarily occurs when the truck is in gear and under a load that progresses with speed and turns in to a heavy vibration. when the truck rolls forward you can hear it ever so faintly, but it really...

thanks for the help guys, I'll keep you posted.

none of it made a difference. thinking about pulling the injectors to in and have cleand by local shop. let me know if you have any luck. i've been banging my head trying to figure out the problem although it has not stalled since i replaced the coil, so that is one thing taken care of.

I have also noticed that my catalitic converter is welded on backwards. It has been like that since i bought it and never had any problems. could that have any effect? I still need to change the o2 sensor and camshaft position sensor.

So now I have replaced the cap, rotor, and CPS and still no change. I checked the map sensor and seems to be working fine. Also disconnected the oxygen sensor wile at idle and did not make any difference. Does that mean it's bad?

Blaine- I will check out the pick up coil next after I replace the CPS. Smittty- It runs and drives great and idles at about 700RPMs. the only thing weird is that it has stalled a couple times and has a weird shake/intermittent jitter at Idle. I also already checked the intake with some break...

I did replace the the sensor in the thermostat housing. Is the cam sensor located under the distributor on the engine block or under the distributor cap? I thought that was a pick up coil under the cap which i actually have not thought about looking at. Didn't think of that being a...
