Suspension Clunk

« on: October 17, 2007, 09:21:54 PM »

123xxx miles on the 95 Venger

When I go over SMALL bumps there is a "clump-clump-clump". It almost sounds as if something is bouncing up front pass. side of the car.

It's only when I go over small bumps 20-40mph tho, big bumps it sounds ok.

Any ideas?

could be the ball joint they have a lifetime recall on the ball joints for the venge and brings. other than that it could be a bad shock and possibly a bad bushing on the springs.

Lifetime recall meaning even if I didn't buy it new, I can get a free one?

The bushings didn't look to bad...

I might just have to get lowering springs Wink

Well if the ball joints are bad stop driving. If you don't know what it is, stop driving and take it to a shop, or a local ASOG member that knows what they're doing.

You don't really want to mess with something that could send your wheel flying off while you're driving.

We've had sway bar bushings go on some of the cars we've had. Might want to check those.

damn lucky you (that lift i mean)

I would have it checked out and yeah the recall is good for the life of the car no matter who it belongs to since its a major hazard.
