'Groaning' noise when turning right

Hi all
I just had the front anti roll bar bushes (and the drop links and the track rod ends) replaced on our 98 4.0 litre and it has stopped making the groaning noise (all the banging and crashing has stopped too ;) ;) ). I am wondering if the anti roll bar could be moving around when on full steering lock and causing the noise??
It is a cheap thing to try anyhow.....

Aric....i have already done that :) . you know how the wheels kinda sag in a bit, well not anymore after i got alighnment but anyways i told em im just gonna swap in a solid axle it'll be cheaper. Thats what i got planned for the summer.
 






nice. funds wont allow it this year. but i have lots of other goodies planned. next year i want to do a full size leaf sprung 44 and matching rear. (build the axles through fall and winter, then install in spring) are you signed up for the badlands 10th anniversary run?
 












yes sir i am. im prolly gonna go earlier before the run just to make sure everything is up to par on my mounty. you wanna come with? it'll be in may, as i finish uni end of april.
 












same here(bein there once) and it sent me back with a souvineer on my right rear fender.
 






i should learn how to drive... i left with... a few souviners. my hood, grill, trunk, and passenger side fender are the only body parts left without deep tree gouges or dents/dings. my driver's side door is pretty much trashed, and i've had to replace the drivers side mirror once. but all that is from quiet a few wheeling trips.. not just my one trip to the badlands.
 






Hi guys,

Thanks for the replies and sorry for not getting back sooner, but I've been away working at the Winter Olympics.

So, sounds like nothing to worry about - my kind of answer!

Aric, it's the 4.0. I'll look into the secondary cooling option - thanks.

Cheers,

Wonk.
