Default Grinding noise???

I just dropped the k-member last week and got it all back together with new UMI 3 Point SFC and some poly mounts on the front sway bar, when I get on it I hear a noise like the tires are rubbing the fenderwell but they are factory tires and there is really no way it could be hitting the fender, I was wondering af anyone else has had anything similar happen. I know it is hard to diagnose without actually hearing it but I am at a loss and the closest sound I could figure was the tire rub

Default About noise!

Hello,

I have a few questions for you!

Is the car lowered?

Are you hearing it in the front or rear?

If its in the rear of the car! You will have to recenter the rear using a Adjustable Panhard Bar.

Thanks Again
Brad
