Will a ZZ4 Crate engine fit in my 02 Silverado Shortbed?
i think Ford paid u to put up some junk stuff like thisThe rubbing sound, is probably nothing other than the steering shaft rubbing on something...you could try to have someone turn it while you listen under the dash and when you find the noise try some wd40 on it.
1977 chevy sounds like gridding when i got it torked up?
The steering wandering, I am assuming they did a 4 wheel alignment, because if not then thats probably the problem. The next thing I would do is have a shop check to make sure the car was never totalled, and that the frame is square. If thats not the problem you can start replacing the steering parts...tie rods, rack, ball joints.
Why will my 91 honda accord only go in reverse?
I own a shop, and work on these a lot. What I think is the rubbing sound, is nothing more than the brake pads touching the rotor. You probably have a rotor that needs turning, thus it has a high spot on it making the noise. As for the wandering that can be from a component such as a tie rod end worn, a idler arm worn, or the drag link worn. A ball joint can also cause this. Have the front end lubricated to see if this corrects the problem, if it does then you know you will need to look at it in the near future.Glad to help out, Good Luck!

How do I change a manual transmission extention housing on a 89 5.0 mustang?
Has any one checked the tires? A bad steel belt or a flat spotted tire can cause a wonder as can mis matched tires. It could also be a little play in the steering box since it is a 1997 Vehicle. The rubbing sound can be most anything from a brake hanging up, which also could cause a wonder, to a hub bearing going bad. Have someone stand outside while you drive it slow and see if they can tell. Any decent mechanic should pin point the noise.More Questions & Answers ...
