Re: pro comp 6in lift

Chances are that it's the steering stop on the ProComp spindle rubbing on the lower control arm.

Good Explanation here:

Good Picture of what to grind here:

Note that you should NOT crank the wheel to the 'full lock' position and keep it there, even for tight turns.

Re: pro comp 6in lift

I've got the same problem and after grinding the stop down it still creaks. Does it when I back out of the driveway or turn while applying the brakes. No one can help me where I live. Somewhere I read that Nissan has a floating lower control arm where the sound is coming from...any ideas!

Re: pro comp 6in lift

Check your lower control arm bolts. After I had mine cranked with an impact, it has been quiet.

Re: pro comp 6in lift

Mines been doing the same. When I pull it out of my garage it makes a loud CLANK noise when turned all the way - this is going about 1-2 mph. I swear I've heard the same thing on older trucks. I have the 4" CST lift spindle if that makes a difference?

Re: pro comp 6in lift

I have a fabtech 6inch lift and mine does the same. At a hard turn there is a "cranking" noise that comes from behind the wheel. Im not all that savy when it comes to vehicle technical ish...I was about to start my own thread asking about this.

is it a bad tire/wheel combo?

I have the 35x12.5 Procomp ATs and 17inch DC1s....
