    Angry VS clunks from all four angles..

    Ok, my commy has had a fair few new parts on the front end, and the clunk keeps getting worse, (happens when i go over bumps and when I shake the steering wheel). I can sometimes hear the clunks from the back now too.
    It had a brand new rack, all new rubbers, new bearings, new rotors. (maybe a few more things)
    Shockeys maybe???


    Any Ideas????

    Have you checked the front sway bar link pins? They are about 30cmm long, they connect the end of the sway bar to a point on the strut. There are rubber bushes where they connect. Worn ones cause a clunking sound. You can buy them fairly cheap on Ebay. I recently bought a pair. They were a different design to the original, they were shaped to fit better. Cost me $30 delivered. Supercheap had the replacment rubbers for $27.00.

    castor bar bushes aka radius rod to control arm and chassis, their about $35 or if it clunks when you shake the steering wheel could be the tie rod ends but they should have been replaced when you had the power steering rack done
