I did a T-Bar crank few months ago (November), and havent had any issues with anything rubbing, or cv joints acting up.. 265/70-16 tires

I just got a body lift install 2 days ago and now im getting a grinding in my drivers side wheel and a squeak (RUBBING) in my passenger side wheel

The grind and squeak started at full turn pulling out of a parking spot... then it continued to do make noises driving down the road...

Pulled over and checked.. at full lock both ways the tire has like 1 1/2 in clearance from upper control arm.. no way it touches anything at all...

Im flipping out trying to figure out what it is...

The T-Bar cranked 6 full turns inward for a total of 2 inches of lift on both sides... i remember someone saying dont go over 2 inches of lift for 4wd

Last december i replaced both the drivers and passenger side wheel bearings with a timken hub assembly... so i guess i can rule out the wheel bearing GONE bad...

Any one ever have a grinding from T-Bar cranking??

I had a similar issue when the grinding sound and after replacing both front sway bar links the noise disappeared. I don't know if that helps you any but you might want someone to look at your links while you turn the wheel.

Mine made the noise similar and after looking I see the steering rack is losing fluid and pulling in air so it needs replaced
