Greetings Wayalifers,
In this video you will hear a noise that drives me nuts. Please hear in second 7, 27, 36 and 44. Noticed it the first time when the Jeep was 2 month-old and not wheeled yet (the wife was driving it):grayno:

After researched, I have come to the conclusion that this noise is caused by the infamous backlash, and please correct me if I'm wrong. My question to the experts:
1) How much of it is considered "normal"?
2) Can it be reduced by a mechanical fix?
3) Will it get worst until something breaks?
It's a manual 2012 stock. Duratracs 285/70 mounted on original wheels.
Cheers,
Mando.-
