Muffed knocking from front suspension was created by pkuna

Hello!
When I ride on unevenness I hear some muffed knocking from front suspension.
I replaced the stabilizer's joints, but that did not help.
What could be broken?
Thank you.
Regards

Check that all the bolts that attach to the axles are correctly torqued, so panhard, swing arms and dampers on both ends. This will also let you check for other damage and excessive wear in brackets etc.

Check your exhaust, sound plays funny games with you underneath the Jimny

As Daniel30 says check the exhaust, there are a few heat shields that can rattle around.

I had a bit of a slight knocking sound from my driver side front wheel and it was a worn anti roll bar drop link. I only fitted a new pair around December time.

Mine was doing the same. It was the bolts loose on the radius arms/front axle joint.
