Hi Folks - Hope you can help me get to the bottom of my suspension noise.
I have a very obvious clunking from front right when driving over uneven roads. I have changed the inner and outer ball joints and had the bushes renewed on the suspension arm / wishbone where it goes into the chassis. Still the noise is there so I changed the droplinks - the old one fell apart when I put a pry bar on them so they needed done but I still have the clunking.
The car is slightly lowered on coilovers and have checked them - they are in good condition and no play in the top mounts.
I can only think its the anti roll bar bushes but they seemed fine when I was under the car with a pry bar.
The clunking is pretty obvious and on uneven roads surfaces I can almost feel it through the steering. The car tracks straight though and no problem with vagueness in the steering. I am at a loss as to what to try next. Any thoughts would be appreciated
Thanks
Colin
