2008 Hummer H3 front end binding on tight turns
Hello I have a nice 2008 H3 with 218,000 miles. runs and drives fine on highway and in town unless making a sharp turn like a U turn I get binding of front wheels and steering wheel like in 4 wheel drive. it comes and goes but occasionally i have a very loud clunk in front end pulling away after a tight turn. replaced main front diff bushing on cross member , front drive shaft , cv axles, any thoughts ? No codes and it shifts in and out of 4 wheel low and high without issues. changes fluids from TC and Front Diff looked fine. I an trying to determine most likely next step. Front diff ? transfer case shift issues ? cv axles not OEM ? right and left front diff bushings are worn too. thanks

Replace all front Diff Bushings. I would look into the TC plastic shift fork issue as well.

sounds weird but when was your last alignment? i recently had a similar issue to what you're experiencing and found my UCA camber nuts had come loose causing a clunk and binding when doing a sharp turn. Might be worth while putting a wrench on the bolts to make sure before dropping $$$ for a diag
