I have a 2011 Ram 1500 lifted 6'' with 37''s and yesterday I noticed a slight grinding noise that seemed to be coming from front driver side. today when driving home at about 15 mph I noticed it grinding with a clunking sound so bad I stopped and checked out my linkage and to see if something was broken. I decided to try and limp home and the sound goes away at above 40mph and before I got home the ABS, ECS and SERV 4WD warning lights came on... that can't be good. The grinding sound is still there at 5 - 20mph and it sounds expensive
Any ideas on where to start looking for a problem? I've had similar problem with my jeep with Axle seals. I can't see anything obvious when looking at linkage, wheels, brakes...etc. Also, I live on a very bumpy gravel road and that doesn't really help. Since I have the 37'' tires on 20'' rims I'm wondering if the added weight and stress and driving down a really bumpy gravel road has broken something.
ABS, SERV 4WD and ECS lights...warning on left is for the annoying tire pressure sensor that never worked
