1996 cherokee sport - when I turn my front wheels all the way to the left and try to drive the vehicle I get a lot of resistance. I get under to take a look and find that the right front end linkage (tie rod?) is dragging on the inside of the right front wheel (rim). Is my tie rod failing or am I looking at a wheel bearing or ball joint problem? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

welcome to the board. unfortunately for you, this is a "full size jeep only" website. however, with that being said, you may have a bad ball joint or or wheel bearing. lift that corner and pull on the tire up and down and side to side. if it is a bad ball joint or whell bearing, you will feel it.
further, check out www.midwestjeepthing.com. (http://www.midwestjeepthing.com.) your question may be better answered there.
