First time posting on the new site, looks great! I looked through the past postings, and unfortunately didn't find one that matched my current problem.
We are having an intermittent issue with our 2002 Trailblazer LT 4x4, and I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction. After I ride over even a small bump/pothole in the road, the front end makes a whirring/rattle kind of sound and I can feel a vibration until I slow down to a stop, then it goes away until the next bump. I can best describe the sound/vibration as what you would hear and feel if you were driving over a rumble strip on the shoulder of a highway or approaching a toll booth. It almost feels like I am dragging a small branch under the front of the car.
It first started about six months ago, but it was very intermittent, until about a week ago. I guess it could be in the front suspension or the wheel assemblies, but to me it feels like it is in the 4x4 system, which is why I posted here. And, I couldn't swear to it, but it seems like it is coming more towards the passenger's side.
Any ideas? Thanks!
