    I reckon front Radius arm bushes for sure. Second guess would be a tie rod end. Third guess would be panard rod bush.
    Its a Nissan! =====> Its a Keeper!! ....... Got a TD42 in it BONUS!! ....... I'm a lucky bugger! I've got 2 of em!

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    Can you feel it through the steering wheel?, Maybe be something simple like a loose heat
    sheild on Cat. But I'd be jacking it up and going over everything with a large screwdriver looking for play on all the suspension
    components. Will be interested in what you you find. Better if you can get it up on a hoist.

    Do you have a bullbar fitted? Grab it on either the very left or right and try and shake it. You will know if it's loose.

    Got a mate to bounch the car up and down on left and right side, no noise from right side, but can hear noise from left side, climbed in underneath while it was doing it, cant pin point were the clang/clunk is coming from but if I hold the spring, can feel a difenite clunk in the sping when he bounched it, tried holding the other components mentioned and cant feel any clink from them, could the shock absorber be shot? Took my mate for a drive to show him the spound I was talking about when going over bumps, he weighs over 120KG, and sound reduced by 7-0-60% while he was in the passenger seat, when I dropped him off home, sound was back to its normal clang over bumps etc...

    Buy your self a set of spring seats(or what ever they are called), the rubber bits that sit ontop of the spring. Sounds like it could be worn through.
