could be a loose wheel bearing, wear from uneven road, steering compensation from towing...
who knows... You can rotate a tire if needed when you get a chance.


As a 96, have all the hoses ever been replaced, might want to do it right cause adding one new hose to a batch of old hoses raises the pressure to the older hose and you may have another issue soon
Good point Mike ...but I 90 is not the ideal place to be replacing all your hoses
that are not available from ORiellys on any Sunday.

That's what I figured.
Time to head back south, the mother in law is only half an hour away. Maybe if I don't put the cap back on, it won't build pressure and blow out my Goop.
Oh, I tried oriellys and they don't even sell a lower radiator hose, only the upper

If I can't get a lower hose, I should be able to replicate it with the appropriate size hoses and some tees and hose clamps

Just try to find one that fits. Make sure its a heater hose and not just a rubber hose.

Did you just purchase this Disco recently? And you set out on a trip in it? That is a mighty big risk if that is the case.

I found a hose that will fit, minus the smaller hoses that go to the recovery tank and heater.
