Ok i just joined this site hoping to find the answers i need...please someone help. I have a 2000 Jeep Wrangler Sahara no lift and 31" tires. When i purchased the jeep almost a year ago i noticed that it would make a popping sound every now and then when i would start out in 1st gear. Then it got worse and louder and was doing it all the time. I put it in the shop to have the rear end checked out and the mechanic said everything looked great. I got the jeep back and it was still popping so i took it back to him and this time he checked the rear axles along with the rear end again. This time he found that my rear driver axle and axle bearing had gone bad so he replaced them. To no avail i got my jeep back and it is still making the grinding popping noise in 1st gear and now it is all the time. I have had brakes checked out and they are fine. I have also had all 4 of my drive shaft u-joints replaced. Any Suggestions? Feel free to ask any questions cause i really need the help..
