I really love videos that start off right away explaining what the video title states. Long winded talkers should not make videos. Get to the damn point! Lol. He wasn't as bad as others stopping once he got started going off on multiple tangents. Just took his time getting to the issue.
What about a clicking sound from the driver's side rear? A knock in the steering column? I have a 2001 like yours with less than 80,000 miles on it. I've had to keep up on the body over the last 20 years, maintained it to specs , and still...
i was having cluking coming out of my front end and i checked every thing out all my bushings ball joints shit like that were fine what i found is that the sub frame connecting bolt head snapped off. i started searching challenger web sights and found alot of people having this issue. behind the tire theres a peice of tape like substance glued over a body access hole that tape falls off and moisture gets in, travels down the bolt and rots the bolt as well as sub frame from inside. its not just challengers also chargers magnums on lady even said her van had this problem. if your sub frame is rotting the thru bolt has two sets of threads on them the bolt is like 8 inches long and near the head of bolt are threads that are supposed to thread to sub frame. now with head snapped off i was working on ways to get that bolt out cause dodge will tell you you need a new subframe (engine cradle) cause threads are stripped. or they wont tell you and change bolt that might last a while but without those bottom threads,the bolt is helpless. in this video i can see the bolt on the side hes working on but could be the other side. on my car its the passenger side thats bad but when im driving it sounds like the drivers side. so im working on three different ways of fixing this problem without changing sub frame dodge will charge u thousands.a new cradle five fifty to seven hundred dollars. n then u better hope u got the right one. the first thing i will do is try to drill a hole in the bolt ane use a e-z out type bolt remover also lubercate the top of bolt thru the window behind wheel. if that dont work i will see if theres a reverse tap and bolt that i can tap in and since its reverse as i tighten tapped bolt it should loosen frame bolt. next i will cut the window open to get to nut which has a locking washer on it (not a lock washer) i had to stick my camera in the hand hole n take photos to see in there. now if the threads on the bottom are stripped i will try to weld the washer that comes with the bolt on to the bolt then weld the washer to the body after in stalling it. i might just skip all that and weld the sub frame to the frame. but that bolt will still be in there dangling around. i dont think it will make much noise if the frame is not bouncing around. if anybody is having this problem contact the national highway traffic safety administration 1-888-327-4236 they are in charge of recalls. most times you have to change the engine cradle due to accidents and they got bent. most likely this is what caused your accident.
could u still get that piece to move around if the truck wasnt jacked up? basically i want to know if i could diagnose that specific issue with the truck still on the ground. i drive a 06 colorado 4x4 I5 cylinder and am having same exact sound coming from front driver side wheel.. but the part/shaft that is connecting to the backside of the hub does not look the same as is what is in the video. mine has a boot that covers the shaft that connects to the backside of the hub. the truck in this video does not a have a rubber boot over the metal shaft that is connecting to the back of the hub
So after a quick search on Rockauto.com the universal joints run from $15-$35. Very cheap part to replace. The only snag is its a labour intensive repair. Need to remove the brakes and bearing hub assembly in order to access it. Easy enough but takes time. Stay tuned to the channel to watch tha repair!!!!
Georgia Shuler I did the repair but didnt film it because i had never done it before and i wasnt too sure about it. It turned out to be pretty easy and straight forward and i really regret not filming it. I do apologize. Thanks for subscribing and i hope more of my videos help you in the future. There are a few good videos on changing ujoints on youtube. Its pretty straight forward for all ujoints so it doesnt have to be a video specific to the Ram.
Hello I have a Chevy 2500 4x4. LF when I spin wheel I get a clicking; RF no clicking. I can't determine cause. Do I remove caliper test for clicking? Move to remove half shaft and test for clicking? I get a quick flash of a dash light but can not determine which one it is blinking....
Sorry, nevermind. I listened again and so the problem is U bolts or U joints. Please correct me if I misunderstood. (I know nothing of cars or their parts)
I found out my passenger side is bad. I have a 1999 dodge ram 1500 5.2L. I am not worried about fixing the 4x4 so i am just going to remove the front drive shaft so it wont continue to spin those
My 92 dodge Dakota is making a clicking its a lite clicking noise started out when I turned left now it's all the time.the windowhas to be down it's very hard to hear??
I have a 2011 jeep grand Cherokee and it just started aggravating me by constantly clicking ..only when I hit the gas...I can try to power brake it and ..nothing ..so it's not the motor ..it just seems to be clicking to much to be a bad wheel bearing ..plz help
I have the same click or knock. Passenger side. But on a 97 ram 2wd. Just replaced lines, calipers, pads, rotors with built in hub, new wheel bearings as well so idk what the issue is
@@zachthomason6061 did you get clicking as long as the wheels spun? I get this metallic clicking noise. Gets fast w speed and doesn’t matter if I’m on the gas or not. Definitely louder when I’m next to a wall or a car.
This sounds exactly like what is wrong with my truck but what is this problem called? I wont be fixing it myself but I would like to know what I should tell a mechanic is the problem and I would like to know myself. What is the part called that is lose? Thanks so much.
Is there something else could cause this sound can not have any gear oil cause this sound on driver side please help me it's driven me crazy it gotten way lorder over the few months I had the old truck
I have a 1999 Dodge ram 1500 making a clicking sound it gotten louder over time even does it in neutral like every other mile it make this sound already check the u joint on driver side there new cold not haven any gear oil on front end cause this sound it's like a clicking orc Lankan driven me nuts scared to drive it don't want something to lock up my front end anyone know what could cause this annoying sound we saw last night there was nut much gear oil any were on the font end it only does it on the driver side check u joints already there been replaced recently so anyone can help me what is doing this it very I can feel it in the gas pedal and if the wondow is down you can hear it if it only even if it even in neutral or drive going down a hill my thing I seen there was no gear oil can this do it
I found out what it was. One side of the steering column that connects with the tie rod. One side was lose causing the steering column on one side to hit against the frame of the truck. Hope this help someone.
I'm having an issue right now where every time you turn left or right you hear a clicking noise.. if you turn really far to the left or right You hear the clicking noise Rapidly.. is that what your issue was?
@@joshliman1932 no it was only one of the rims that broke from one edge. But I think what your describing has to do either with the ball joints or both sides of the axle
@@Humble_Lyfe ok we were gonna take a look at both those things anyway just want to make sure we're fixing the right thing you could also hear the clicking noise when you start to take off too.. pretty much when it shifts gears..
@@Humble_Lyfe It's at take off when the clunking starts.. If you get it to the speed you want to go and just drive straight you don't hear anything it sounds good but when you turn you hear it really badd..
I bought a 2014 ram 2500 ctd with43k on the odometer..49k the whole front end is shot..truck is COMPLETELY STOCK,No off roading,reading, lift factory wheels and tires..EXTREMELY DISSAPOINTED..Yhe only good thing about ram is the CUMMINS MOTOR..the rest is JUNK

How much did this repair cost
Hello
I have a Chevy 2500 4x4.
LF when I spin wheel I get a clicking; RF no clicking. I can't determine cause. Do I remove caliper test for clicking? Move to remove half shaft and test for clicking?
I get a quick flash of a dash light but can not determine which one it is blinking....
Bingo thanks for the heads up mine us shot
How did you fix it?? Make a video plz
Replace the U Joint on the axle
Sorry, nevermind. I listened again and so the problem is U bolts or U joints. Please correct me if I misunderstood. (I know nothing of cars or their parts)
Would be if the sound was coming from the drive shaft. 2wd has only one shaft 4wd has 2
Thank you 🙏
just ignore the clicking from the front end. the grinding of the dodge transmission going out will soon drown it out.
😂🤣
I found out my passenger side is bad. I have a 1999 dodge ram 1500 5.2L. I am not worried about fixing the 4x4 so i am just going to remove the front drive shaft so it wont continue to spin those
My 92 dodge Dakota is making a clicking its a lite clicking noise started out when I turned left now it's all the time.the windowhas to be down it's very hard to hear??
lol I wish my 1500 had a straight axel.
I have a 2011 jeep grand Cherokee and it just started aggravating me by constantly clicking ..only when I hit the gas...I can try to power brake it and ..nothing ..so it's not the motor ..it just seems to be clicking to much to be a bad wheel bearing ..plz help
Thanks bro
Thank you, great video!
My transfer case is out so moreless it only has two wheel drive
I have the same click or knock. Passenger side. But on a 97 ram 2wd. Just replaced lines, calipers, pads, rotors with built in hub, new wheel bearings as well so idk what the issue is
Do you still have the issue? If not did you figure out what it was like
@@seanpennington6912 it was bad wheel bearings, and defective calipers.
@@zachthomason6061 did you get clicking as long as the wheels spun? I get this metallic clicking noise. Gets fast w speed and doesn’t matter if I’m on the gas or not. Definitely louder when I’m next to a wall or a car.
@@seanpennington6912 that be your wheel bearings
If it was u joints there be a knock knock noise. Breaks would be like a scratching
My truck makes a ticking noise when u go past 40 miles per hour its stops if 4 wheel is on but if its back in 2 wheel it sucks
Is this a awd. My ram has RWD it doesn't have any axle juts the sway bar links. Tie rod. Caliper. Breaks. Rotor. Control arm.
doesn’t have an axle ?😂😂 what
This sounds exactly like what is wrong with my truck but what is this problem called? I wont be fixing it myself but I would like to know what I should tell a mechanic is the problem and I would like to know myself. What is the part called that is lose? Thanks so much.
they are small u-joints in the front of a 4 wheel drive system.
Just tell them replace the whole CV Axle
So what’s it called
Is there something else could cause this sound can not have any gear oil cause this sound on driver side please help me it's driven me crazy it gotten way lorder over the few months I had the old truck
Figured it out yet?

That's more of a clunking then clicking. On my 2019 I'm hearing clicking before I move truck.
This guy kind of sounds like Chris Pratt
U joint mines doing the exact same lost a cap
Thanks !
I found out what it was. One side of the steering column that connects with the tie rod. One side was lose causing the steering column on one side to hit against the frame of the truck. Hope this help someone.
