ka-thunk noise from the front


Recommended Posts

i bet if i searched alittle better i'd find the answer

 

but here we go, when hitting bumps, or turning hard, or dropping the clutch like i was dragin. i was getting a cool ka-thunk noise from my pass-front area. this was quite awhile ago.

 

recently (this last weekend) did naches (and made it dangit!), and about halfway the noise became a jerk through the stearing wheel, and gas pedal.... then turned into a noise from both sides (stupid rocky maddness).

 

all my lift bolts apear tight (not making an analogy there).

 

so is is struts or whatnot, the cool bearing mounting plate, or a bushing somewhere, or something i'm not thinking of (me not thinking, like that's going to happen)?

I will add tie rod ends, although you didnt mention any steering wheel shimmy. the HTKYSA has a REALLY great walk-through on isolating a front suspension/steering issue.. it also helps describe the theory and function of it all, easy to understand, enlightening even if you know something about it all already.
