Loud Clanging Noise from front end

Post by Jonezy01 »

Clanging noise from the front end of my 92 triton ute as i have not had much to do with IFS before I am at cross roads. I've greased it all replace all the bushes but it is still doing it. It seems to do it when turning and under flex. Hope someone can help cheers guys.

Turning on full lock?

Sounds like your steering stops which don't move up and down in time with the wheel.

Dab of grease on the end of the adjuster and all should be fine.

Thats what i was thinking. Put it on full lock and drive up a gutter. If it creaks then grease the steering stops.
