Something I learned today, Need advice.

I had a noise in the 7 1/4 that was in mine when I first put it on the road and found it was the parking brake strut bar that goes from one shoe to the other. Mine was missing the spring and was allowed to drop enough to slightly drag on the axle shaft making a screeching noise when I drove it. Good luck with whatever it is in yours making noise.

After a very close inspection I did not see any shinny places on any part on my brake system and no signs of any parts loose or rubbing chryslerfat
I thought for sure it was the brake adjuster or the parking brake strut bar to.
I am going to buy a complete axle bearing and seal kit for booth side and pack the bearings and let them set in a baggy and take them to my friend up the road to do the job for me. do it right and repack as needed this time :happy10:
