hey guys. I noticed recently ive been having an issue with a loud clunk coming from my front end when i hit cracks/potholes in the road.
also when i have 4 people in my car, when i hit these same cracks/potholes i hear the tires hit in in the wheel wells. i was going to replace my springs, put in some tein s-techs, but im pretty sure that wont help with my clunking, what do u guys think? p.s. this whole system has 170k on it... -------------------- The question is not how far. The question is, do you possess the constitution, the depth of faith, to go as far as is needed? |

yea, its time for some suspension work nate.
springs, shocks, shock mounts, sway bar bushings, ball joints, tie rod ends, and end links are all shot @ 170k..lol i would start with all 4 shocks and springs, and possibly front and rear strut mounts if theyre bad. i like to replace the sway bar bushings as well, theyre cheap, IIRC ~6-7$ each. -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)
