Patrol front right end going "DOOONG" over small bumps....vague I know right?

[threedogs]

Everytime mine is up on the hoist we go over all the bushes etc with a large screwdriver, to check for any movement. its not often but just have access to hoist

Hey Benno how did you figure it was the link? was it visibly stuffed/cracked, etc. Pretty sure you can go without the front swaybar in gu's without negative consequences but would love to hear some feedback.

I was checking every thing to try and find the noise and just looking at the sway bar one of the ends looked like it was sitting funny so i removed it and found it was very badly worn.

OzzyMalone,

I know the noise you are talking about, as I have had it in my previous vehicle.

Normally it is the passenger front side that does it, not the drivers side front, and I have always thought it to be the spring binding in the tower.

I have put a 5mm Polyethelene pad, on the bottom, and checked and taped the top rubber so it sits in the right position, and I haven't had the noise since.

I'm with happy on this one mine is doing the same and has for a long time now I've just left it as it doesn't bother me as long as I know what it is lol

I had a similar issue which was the same thing as Westys. I ended up parking the car on an angle and getting my old man to rock the car, I could feel the clunk through the radius arm. Tightened the sh1t out of it, all good since.

Go over every nut and bolt on the front axle. As mentioned mine flogged out, wasn't that bad so I changed out the loose bolt and all is good now.
