Clunk + clunkety + roll

[ParadiseMJ]

When I'm rolling over a bump in the road I expect a certain small amount of "clunk" in my front end. Now I'm getting an extra clunk...after the hit...and it sounds like something is rolling from side to side. Thus the title.

 

It happens mostly when I'm going slow, maybe I just don't hear it when going faster. Sounds like "Bump...clunkety...roll". I have NEW control arms, rubber bushings, TRE's and axle u-joints. It's almost like I left a tool or a can in there, but everything is accounted for.

 

Any ideas.

Sway bar bushing? mine fell out one time.... :wrench:

Sure sounds like trackbar. My guess is the worn out parts absorbed some of the shock not making the trackbar clunk as noticeable. Now most of everything is tight and all of the slop is being concentrated in one spot.

Both good things to look at. I'll climb under there today.

I never worried about the clunks. Just the clanks.

X2. I only worry when the clunks stop, that usually means whatever was loose has fallen off

So if it's still goin', what's the problem.? Less weight=faster response.

I checked my toolbox for an empty beer bottle, but nuthin'.

 

That's what it sounds like, a 40 oz. rolling around in the bed.
