Boy Harry, you now have me nervous. #2 is something I SHOULD have done.

Oh well, you found the problem, fixed it for no additional $$ and taught me a lesson at the same time!!!!

Thank you Sir!!!
Matt

I have a similar situation to that of Coach. I have a '67 GP convert. Had it now a year and this horrible "clunk" sound developed. Seemed to coincide with my upgrade to a 1.25" front sway bar. First I thought it might be the end links. No, it wasn't. I've isolated the sway bar, shocks, tightened all bolts and motor and body mounts and can't find the source. The sound occurs usually at low speed when the car weight shifts, like going up/down a drive way or making a low speed turn. It sounds like the front springs are "catching" and releasing. Driving me crazy.

I'll bring to my suspension mechanic and ask him to reseat the springs. Can I use a rubber hose as an isolator? I will also check all bolts in the rear, too. Only ones left. Any help or advice would be most appreciated.

Coach, thanks for your initial description. Very helpful. Also nice to know I'm not alone with this problem. Sometimes you think you're going nuts.

Regards,

Schlitzman
