Hi all,
New to the site and looking for a little help. I have an 94 cherokee country with an HO 4.0 L and and automatic. It has a 3" lift wit spacers in the front and add a leaves in the rear along with air shocks. The problem that has recently started is this.
While under brake load something in the rear section of the drive train started to make a light clunk noise that was speed dependent. IE slower the car is decelarating the less time interval of the clunk. Recently it has started to make one very loud clunk when under hard brake load.
I have removed and inspected both rear ujoints, the rear brake assemblies, the rear leaf springs, pinion nut, and the t-case output yoke. I have yet to pull the cover off of the diff to see if there is anything going on but the back lash seems appropriate and does not make any noise under acceleration or VERY LIGHT braking. I have been building custom cars for many years and this one is throwing me off. I have watched the suspension cycle during braking (not easy to do) and can not seem to pin point the issue.
I know one of you hard core XJ freaks can help me out.......
Thanks in advance,
