    GUIV Front drivers side clunk?

    Gday all. After some more help. My GUIV has just developed a clunk in the front right. I cant seem to find anything out of order and only happens when turning and bouncing. It gives a perfect road test with no vibration. It is a pretty unnerving noise. Any help greatly appreciated. Phil

    Thanks fellas, forgot to mention that I just had ARB put a full 2"lift kit in including caster bushes. I will check these now as my bump stops fell out shortly after installation.

    I'm guessing there will be no rubber spring hats on top of the front springs....

    There are only rubber noise dampers at the top of the springs, and nothing at the bottom.

    The top rubbers are hard to see up inside the spring perch, but should be there.

    I added a flat 8mm Poly Spacer at the bottom of the passenger front spring, as this is usually the one that makes the most noise.

    Yeah there should be on the top of the front springs. As mic said they will be hard to see. If there is none there I bet you that's where the noise is from. If you need some, you can get OEM ones or get on evil bay and search for spring spacers for patrol.
    You might be able to get your fingers up through the spring coils and inside the spring and feel for the rubber.
