THIS IS HAPPENING AFTER I INSTALLED NEW BEARING HUBS, HOSES, CALIPER,PADS AND ROTORS. RIGHT SIDE CLUNKS EVERY TIME I APPLY THE BRAKES AT ANY SPEED. SOMETIMES IT CLUNKS WHEN I RELEASE THE BRAKE ALSO. LUG NUTS ARE TIGHT. LEFT SIDE IS OCCASIONAL. MY GUESS IS ROTORS ARE SLAPPING AGAINST THE STUDS. ANY IDEAS ON A FIX? SUGGESTIONS? THANKS
 
1.) Most 2000 GC's (4WD or 2WD) seem to develop some type rear end whine at speed after 1500-2000 miles.
2.) Most pull to the right.
3.) Many have had power window problems
4.) Many have a clunking noise in trans. when downshifting or accelerating away from a stop.
5.) Many shudder in hard cornering.

Clean and examine the battery cables.
Look for corrosion under the battery cable insulation.
Clean the termination points for the battery cables.
Examine the grounding braids from the Engine to the frame and frame to the body.
If they are corroded, replace the braids.
