right rear wheel

Post by LyricsNLines » Thu Apr 12, 2012 2:22 am

rattle/clanking noise coming from this wheel, on an initial inspection nothing appears to be loose,worn,or broken. The noise is constantly and can be heard as soon as the vehicle reachings 10+ mph. Any suggestion on what to inspect in further? Common problem?

check the back of the rim/tire and see if there is any rubbing.

Patience, of course, is a very powerful weapon, but sometimes I start to regret that it is not a firearm.
