Need help with a problem
I have a TJ jeep 6cly 4.0L 2002. When I drive the jeep for around 1/2
then make a sharp turn it seems like the wheel binds and I have a flat
tire. This only occurs if the jeep has been driven for 20 minutes or
longer. If I take it for a spin around the block it is ok.
The U-Joints are find, and I am out of ideas. Any help would be great.

Re: Need help with a problem
I have what seems like the exact same trouble on my CJ7. The wheel will
bind and stay about half a turn cocked while pulling to that side when I
come back straight, like a flat does, then suddenly it will come
straight again.
I was thinking maybe a bad steering stabilizer shock until I got under
and looked real close. I then noticed the rubber boot around one lower
ball joint gone. I will be damned if I can get that joint to move with
a pry bar and jacks, but it sure acts like it could be toast.

Re: Need help with a problem
Hi Mike
Where should I look for this and what should I be looking for? Is it
something easy to spot? Do I need to that the wheel off? How do you
know the boot is gone?
Thanks

Re: Need help with a problem
Mike,
I have seen them bind up like that, instead of getting loose. Heh, if you
drive it long enough, and if you survive, it will loosen up for sure.
