One of my favorites!
I've got a clunk in my suspension. Gonna figure it out tomorrow at the hobby shop. Hoping it's just a link sliding back and forth and not a ball joint
Check the A arms up front. Loosen them up with the wheels on the ground (ride height) and torque them down to the FSM value +10% (if you wish). Mine always clunk there if they aren't tight. Could be shock mounts and just about anything really. Suspension clunks are a pain in the ass.
Also look to make sure your factory jack is properly secured...
My money is on the panhard bar mounting points.
I agree with Mike.
I just went ahead and ordered the ball joints. That way when I'm rotating tires, installing springs, and aligning the truck I won't have to worry about those since they have been leaking for a while. Also going to check the torque on the rear arms.
Get new ball joint bolts! And don't over tighten them! They fail often.
Yeah I did the tacoma setup. I know about the turning radius. Total came to 272 with shipping so not too bad. I will probably end up doing the steering rack before fall anyway. That will refresh the front end completely and I can drive pretty much worry free for another 85k at least.
