knocking sound coming from rear end?


Recommended Posts

so noticed this today, after a slow (generally from a stop) turn to straight and normal acceleration im getting this weird knock from what sounds like the left rear wheel. goes away once over 20mph or so. originally i thought i had a nail in the tire or stone, but after taking the wheel off it wasnt that. thats pretty much as far as ive gotten (ran out of daylight....and lazy tonight:rolleyes:) just looking for things to check for when i jack it up tomorrow.

 

thanks

sway bar end links.

 

Then check the bushings for large cracks in the rubber ?

 

Have you had any work done under there in the past few month's ?

figured it out pretty quick. one of my mufflers rusted off a couple weeks ago and had a piece welded in to connect it. when they werent overly straight my OCD self used hose clamps to pull the one side over. it also lifted the mid Y pipe up and was just nicking the rear CV joint. not damage that i could see. took it for a quick drive and seems to be gone.
