Suspension Woes.

[Reddawg]

I am having suspension issues. When going over bumps. holes. i am getting a clanking noise. My shocks are good, could it be the mounts? They seem good? Any ideas. :exp:

could be ball joints

Welcome to this forum! I've moved your thread into the shocks, suspensions, and lift kits section.

Well guys got lucky. The rear bushing on the front, upper control arm on the drivers side is shot. Just moves back and forth when you pull on tire. Ball joints are solid, so replacing bushing tomorrow. Will let know if that solved all the banging noise

Ended up changing upper control arm bushing on each side, threw on my new meats and got it aligned and no more clunking and smooth ride. Thanks for input guys and gals.. Need help on Mpg woes though...

Control arm bushings wasted on an 04 model?

Thanks for the update!

Yes the rear bushing on the upper control arm on each side. Anyone have any ideas what could have caused this?? I am wondering if there is a underlying problem that I am missing. Thanks guys and gals...
