tedsmart Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Hello all, I've just got back from a trip to the cape of Fraser island, which was great other than a couple of things while going over some very bad terrain bad articulation a bad metallic click appeared, driving on flat ground there's no click but soon as you drive over any obstacle there quite a loud click several time depending on the intensity of the terrain, I had a similar click a while after replacing the radius arm bushes that ended up being a loose bolt on them, they are tight as at the moment so its not them!! any ideas?

Boris113 Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Is it generally clicking when your are turning sharply, especially in difflock? I had something similar and it turned out I had blown a CV joint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miketomcat Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Sounds daft but check you seat runners mine broke the weld at the front mount this produced a clicking sound over bumps. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did think CV's but it does it on the straight ahead as well as when turning. with or with out difflock on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tedsmart Posted May 16, 2012 Author Share Posted May 16, 2012 Hey how do you tell if your radius arm bushes have gone without taking them off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eightpot Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Check it isn't coming from the seat runners or seat box - does it still make the noise when someone is sitting in the passenger seat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris113 Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Hey how do you tell if your radius arm bushes have gone without taking them off? Get underneath with a big pry bar and wiggle it around. Another way is to have somebody rock the steering wheel and after; the vehicle, play will often show up with either of these. Harry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
