Squeeling tires

[merciless]

I keep forgetting to ask you guys about this. I was just reminded when trying to do an illegal U-eee when a cop wasnt watching me. It was like honking my horn and yelling look at me im turning <br><br>Is it normal for the bronco around medium to sharp turns for the tires to squeel. Sounds like the fronts to me but im not sure.<br>

tires rubbing on your radius arms.. normal

It may have some sort of locker or spool in it. Does it also kinda hop when turning slow and sharp?

I noticed on real tight turns after my suspension lift that it would "push" the front end outwards intermittantly. I never tried a real tight turn before the lift, so I assumed it was the caster/camber being a little off. Could I have a limited slip front?

The Bronco turns so tight that hard tires don't get much grip when at full turn.<br>-Eric

tires might be low on air

My 2001 Ranger dailey driver does it EVERYWHERE!! I (just turning 16 at the time) figured it was "cool :" but now it just annoying. You could just do what I did to solve my problem....TURN THE MUSIC UP LOUDER ;D!!! hahah

My front tires have always squeeled on sharp turns. I think the bronco can turn the wheels so far they arnt turning the same directions and is pushing or pulling on a tire.

Can cause the vehicle to understeer and can cause the tire squeeling also.<br>You might check to see if you have a locker in the rear.

Put on bigger tires. They moan and groan more then squeel ;D
