    I have a 2002 Jeep GC that makes a groaning noise when you SIMULTANEOUSLY back
    up, and make a sharp turn left or right. Jeep says they don't hear anything
    strange, but to me it sounds like a couple of whales mating...

    Any pointers would be helpful...

    Usually this is caused by the steering stops rubbing. Next time you
    are in a repair shop, ask them to grease the steering stops.

    Thanks.

    I did forget one important point (sorry). The noise comes from the rear-end,
    and not the front end..
    Kinda weird, huh?

    Limited slip rear end? If so, drain the gear oil, replace it, and use a
    fresh packet of Mopar Sure-Grip additive.
