Clunking Noise (HELP)
 
I have a 95 teg. My car has been lowered, but I thought that it needs to be lower. So I l adjusted it even more with coilovers.. Then I got on to the street and my car started to pull left and it was making a clunking nosie from the axle (Left Side). Later on the next day My axle snapped. So I thought that It might have somthing to do with my struts. So I put Some Tokico gas struts in the front and a new axle in yesterday. No it doesn't pull to the left anymore, but it still makes the clunking noise. Now it does the noise to both sides. Sounds like something is hitting it. I can't figure it out. Would it be a lower control arm?? I am on my 3rd axle this week.

Any advice would be helpfull... Thanks

My advice is to stop driving your car till you figure out the problem.

raise the car back up and see if the clunking goes away.

Just go through and check to make sure everything is tight.

When do you get the clunking most?
-Turning? (which way?)
-What speed? (does it change as speed changes as well?)
-Braking?
-Accelerating?
-All the time?

Do you have hubcaps?This one guy brought his car to me with the same problem.....He left a socket between the hubcap and wheel....ive never seen that happen before..but anywho.Is it a clunking noise or a clicking noise?Theres a huge difference.

i finally got it fixed. There is a shaft that hooks up to the steering wheel and a little flex mount on the end. There are 2 screws one was just about out. If it would have gone out then one day when I would turn I I would keep going straight. (Bad News)... I don't really know how that would do any thing of the clunking noise, but when I tighted the screws the noise stopped.,....
