Topic #49029 7 posts Started by elvasoshexai
ok.. i need some help to identify a thudding sound...

the sound is always in the front right fender area

you hear it from that area whenever thefront right or rear left tire goes over a bump...

any ideas?

have you messed with your suspension lately? either a mount is off or maybe a bad sway end link

the area that the sound is coming from is where i got hit, and the sound started showing up after i got hit. but it's not even near my suspension. i checked sway bar stuff. seems fine.

but why would rear left be affected too?? which kinda made it weird

where did you get hit, got a pic?
its your strut mount. mine did the same thing , fix it soon b4 the bearings get ate up , then youll be replacing the rack and pinion too.
i actually fixed it already... for some reason the crash caused my endlink to break... and be cause it was an ST swaybar, the stiffness made it a bit harder to diagnose when suspended on a lift. but it's fixed now.

wish i upgraded to better endlinks. but ah well. @ least it's fixed
