Ever since I have owned my truck it has had this terrible "clunk" right under the drivers side foot rest. Some days it made me mad enough to want to drive the truck off a cliff.
I have replaced EVERY part under the front of the truck more than once and I still have had this clunk. I had all but given up hope of ever fixing it.
When I first felt it I thought " must need control arms" well I replaced them once, still had the issue, then I replaced them again " just because"
Ball joints, steering etc etc etc........
Anyways fast forward to a month ago, I noticed that the mounting holes for the control arms were ovaled out, so I welded in some washers to fix that issue. As a result of that there as no longer any camber adjustment. So high on my list was adjustable control arms.
Thanks to Jacob at DAP I got some BD control arms with Poly bushings. Normally I shy away from poly stuff, but I thought "heck couldn't make the POS truck any worse"
Well much to my surprise after installing the control arms my clunk is gone!
I couldn't believe it. Even OEM Mopar arms and bushing didn't fix the issue.
Figured my issues might help someone else. If you have a clunk in your front end, try poly bushings.
