hi all
grand cherokee V8 4.7 1999
i bought my jeep with a known duff (offside UK)CV joint, bought one off ebay ( this is the cv joint
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/JEEP-GRAND-CHE...es_CarParts_SM

fitted, n torqued up to 175 lb no problem but now there is a horrible whinning from the offside front end I can also feel it thru the floor.
ive checked and striped it all back down and refitted and all looks ok,
cant feel any play or grinding in the hub.

before i changed the CV there was no whinning just the tell tale clunking from the CV joint, thats now gone but the noise is now higher than the radio will go.
ordered another cv from a different dealer and fitted, still the whinning is there

well the update is

was underneath having a looksie around, grabbed the front prop and slap slap
more play than a saturday night footballer in a wine bar
looks like pinion bearing is fubared, sure there wasnt any play there when i checked last week,
so on the look out for another diff now.
hopefully that was what was causing all my grief.

now looking for diff in cornwall some hope of that
