Noisy suspension

Post by Jocelyn »

I recently took my patty out for a quick hit through nudgee, and avoided any mud puddles, and water, becuase I have no snorkel nor do I have my muds on atm, but when flexing through ruts there was lots of bangs and sounds as though my coilies were popping out.. I checked them every 10 minutes or so and they seemed fine, a mate mentiond that it could be becuase of my rear sway bar?
on the good side, it was a machine off road compared to my mates hilux.

Hey mate you have to remember your putting your car through a fair bit of stress when you take it hardcore off road.

So noises can be fine but I would check all your bushers and engine/gear box mounts.

also theres rubbers that sit on top of your coils and if they are in bad shape can make a noise as well

You are right... I would like to add a bit more in what you have said precisely, that what if a service of whole machine, your car, takes place after regular intervals. Then that would also increase efficiency of your vehicle and its life too. I hope that would be helpful for you:) Good Luck......!
