Front Differential Bushings
 

Hi,

The clanking noise at the front turned out to be the Bushings of the front differential. I have been in the forum and there were some earlier posts about this. Does anybody have the experience if this has caused other problems such as rack and pinion problems?

Thanks,
Eric

What type of clanking noise? Was the sound some of us had posted .. when making sharp turns the wheels sort of thumped/hopped?

No I saw clearly that the fron diff. was moving even while shifting from N to D while standing still. And when I would drive away it would make a hard "clanking" noise that could be heard by others on the street.

Mine makes a clanking noise when driving 30mph or over and I take my foot off the gas. Had this problem addressed 3 times before, every time I go out and put any kind of tension on the vehicle when wheeling it starts doing it again. :confused:
