Re: noise front end

Bearings tend to make a growling, roaring sound that increases with rotational speed.....CV joints tend to make clicking sounds on acceleration, and in turns......

Re: noise front end

sounds like the sway bar link on the left side has gone, probably the rubber grommet.

turn your wheels hard left and you should be able to see the sway bar link on the left side.

$20 at autozone and about 30 minutes a side. do both sides at the same time
