I have a '98 Jeep TJ, 111,000 miles. I recently had a 1.5inch lift kit installed, and I started having vibrations underneath during intial load in first gear. I inspected and had to replace my U-joints, but the vibration is still there during initial load and now, there's a "ricketing" noise under 5mph! It sounds like a crunching metal, churning noise coming from the front left wheel, under or near the transmission. What could this be? Can anyone help me?
