just replaced lower arms to 15mm longer superior arms to suit 5 inch lift after snapping one and slightly bending the other, and now getting a clicking sound when begining to move forward, and just this morn got a rather loud clunk sound after reversing then stopping, but fine when driving. any thoughts on wat this could be after bending an arm, Tail shaft Maybe?

so tightened up the arms as much as possible, clunk has gone but still gettin a tick off the start off, im thinkin the tailshaft is in need of some grease!

check your unies for play. if that fails you may have bent/broken something in the diff. my lower control arms went the other day and it bent the diff pinion so it is possible.

yeah i have been thinkin something may have broken when i snapped an arm in half, but the other only had a slight bend. seems to be fine when driving though with the new arms, just starting off
