Default Clunk on Aceleration from a stop

Im hearing a clunk (non-driveline) in the front end when i accelerate just off a stop....

Brought it to hummer, they replaced a bad idler arm (Showed me on the lift....it was definatly bad) and a bad wheel bearing (Once again, showed me on the lift and it was wasted). So they did good replacing 2 parts, and the wheel bearing was REALLY bad....but still i have the clunk.

Anyone got this same clunk sound? Sounds like a stiff bushing sound or somthing to that effect.

Yuppers. I get that sound also. New Idler and Pitman...and Cognito support. Had everything checked and aligned and all looks good. I'm wondering if it might be a noise from the brakes??? Don't know.

If the clunk is on acceleration and braking then it sounds like hubs might be bad or as you have already fixed bearings. If the clunk is is when turing the wheels left or right and so forth then I would look into the steering components more. I have had both of these problems and I am curently in the process of re-doing the entire steering system. This including new pitman arm, new Idler arm idler support, pitman support and idler block, with new tierods to finish it off.The clunk sound on acceleration was fixed for me when I replaced the HUB.

thanks

Remove skidplate to see if that's causing it

Also, check bolts on rear lower control arms.

A broken motor mount can cause this sound also....
