97 s-10 Blazer front end noise?buckeyboy 02-02-2005, 07:49 AM Hi, folks I am new to this forum, I have used many good fixes from it. I have a 1997 s-10 blazer LT. Irepaired the hood washer clunking problem. I still have a light clunky noise sounds like right front end. it sounds much worse when the vehicle is cols all the ball joints idler have been checked and greased noise still there could it be the upper and lower control arm bushings? any hep you can give me will be appriciated. :disappoin rlith 02-02-2005, 08:43 AM Sounds more like a hub bearing. To check, jack up that side of the triuck, get under it and shine a light up to the back of the wheel. Have someone rock the wheel back and forth from the 12 and 6 oclock position. Watch for movement of all the parts, hub, cv shaft, ball joints and tie-rods. You should be able to spot whats moving. buckeyboy 02-02-2005, 10:20 AM Sounds more like a hub bearing.

BlazerLT 02-02-2005, 01:00 PM You sure they were all greased? Did you actually do the actual greasing? blazee 02-02-2005, 01:19 PM If you took it to a shop to get it greased, they didn't grease everything. Some of the fittings take too much F#cking effort for those guys. I do my own and have no problems, I use two mini grease guns. One has a hose with a straight end, and the other has a 90 degree end for getting in the tight places like the idler arm (skids plates get in the way) and the inner tie rod ends (driveaxles get in the way) BlazerLT 02-02-2005, 01:34 PM yip, 11 grease fittings to lube. buckeyboy 02-02-2005, 03:00 PM yip, 11 grease fittings to lube.
