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 :unsure: (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 :)
