IWE Noise

[Tx State]

Just talked to the dealership and they are replacing both IWEs. Unfortunately they had to order them so it will be sitting with them for another day.

That'll work!

Can you link the RCV IWE upgrade rings?

These:

The "Thicker" ones, not eliminator.

Expensive little things (you need two). Just a heads up, you may have to add 1-2 washers between the IWE and the knuckles for clearance - it's extremely tight, but I gave mine a solid beating for 5 days in the sand with no issues post-install.

To be clear, this in no way addresses vacuum leaks - just strengthens the IWEs that I like to break.

So IWE is good but now having a weird braking noise.

Any thoughts? Only does it when the brakes are pressed as soon as you release them no more noise. Its only the front right wheel. I was going to clean the pads and rotor to see if that helps.

Well i found the issue.

Wtf is that? Is that? Rust and mud?

From the description of the eliminators, I sounds like you are just engaging the hubs.

So... like 4A or 4H, but the transfer case is on 2H?

Any issues with that?

It is all rust.
