Hey guys, I looked around and cant seem to find the topic im looking for. If it is a thread already please let me know.
I got a bit addicted to bidding and have a yard full of stuff over the past two years. Among other things I wound up with two LMTVs, the one I need help with is being converted into an over-lander. In short there is a loud screech from the front passenger side tire that recently started. It takes a few hours and the tires are flat. There is also a bit more play than i think there should be in the steering wheel when driving. I didn't yet dive into deep as far as looking myself and thought the answer would be on this site already? I would imagine im not the first with this issue.
Any help would be appreciated! And if anyone knows of someone who is a knowledgeable mechanic on these in NJ please let me know as well.

thanks!
Chris

Hello.
Maybe a leaking tire valve? I had the same, but that was another story. I got a ECU from a M1088 with 90psi highway pressure. That was too much for 1 of the tire valve and vent out until tire was flat.

Like a siren sound? That can be a bad hub seal. If it does its test or fill then blows off a screech at the end that can be normal. See what your tire pressure is. Higher the pressure the louder the end blowoff is.
