CLUNK? was created by HairyBean
Hello.
Took my Jimny off road the other day for the first time since i have done my lift, and noticed that there was a bit of a clunking noise coming from the front when i go into a pot hole or dip. Nothing has broken so no worries there fortunatly. I was wondering if it could be sumthing to do with the front springs being bowed? As the lift is just some Bits4Vits spring and shock spacers at the moment, i will get somne castor correction bushes when money situations allow it
(also need to do the wheel and kingpin bearings
)
So to summerise :whistle: what is causing this clunk?
Many thanks, Rick.

possably spring hitting chassis if you have lifted it & not extended the panhard rod thats what mine was doing but once i fitted adjustable rods it was fine

Haven't you answered your own question? :laugh:
If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there
