Hello there
From the time I've done my reinforcement of the axel there happens to be this grinding sound whenever the front set of my tires tilt or go over as if they were touching is that normal or should i pay a visit back to the garage to get it rectified
regards

Fortunately I am not a Jeep driver so I am unaccustomed to the many quirks of Jeep ownership. However, any "grinding"' sound surely can't be a good thing. Especially if it is only now occurring after a recent modification or upgrade and wasn't there before?! Maybe PM someone like [MENTION=1788]Paul[/MENTION] or [MENTION=1803]Zorro[/MENTION] who seem to know all things Jeep and have more than likely carried out a similar upgrade to their axle. Summer is just around the corner and a desert breakdown is the last thing you want in the hotter months!

Hi
YES, get it looked at.
Considering it came, after you did some modification, it should be easy to find.
Any grinding noise is bad. It will possibly go away, when the touching parts have completely eaten each other up..... not good.
Regards
Paul
PS: What axle job did you do?

Defrag, did you get the Artec system installed by Ramy? You need to have at least 2 1/2" lift to clear the axle. I would go back to Ramy and get them to have a look.
