No thanks. I'm old school.

 

I saw that movie when it was a new release

 

Had a WTF a moment today, pulled a u turn and didn’t have enough space to complete the turn, so I had to stop and back up a little then go. When I did this, it felt like something shifted/slid forward. I screwed around and seemed to be able to make it do this when going forward then backwards and also backwards then forward. Hopefully I’ll have time to look at it tomorrow evening, any suggestions on what to look at specifically? It does make a thud type noise, doesn’t sound like metal on metal. The first thing I am thinking is to check the LCA bolts, but this seems different.

 

Brake pads clicking? Slip joint on the drive shaft?

 

I don’t think it’s the brake pads, I just dropped 700 bucks on replacing them.

not sure on the slip joint.

Edit:removed the stupid explanation,

 

Sounds like the front or back? Have someone stand next to the truck and see if you can get the truck to make the noise.

 

Drivers side, I’ll try this in the next day or two.

 

We do that at work a lot. It's the only way to pinpoint a noise. Sitting in the car makes it a little difficult.

 

Link to the 12 inch conversion that Jack @TacoTuesday603 burned on for me this past weekend. Still have some tidying up to do as well as some small changes but hopefully this weekend i can get it done.

More travel, better ride, or...?

 

A lot more travel, something like 4” more at the shock means a lot more at the tire. Ride quality isn’t changed if the shocks are identical other than length.

 

My first thought was brake pads too - because it's the easiest. If you FELT it move then it might not be the brake pads. But the pads are not a super tight fit, they shift when they go forward/backward @InCogNeatOh Parts so there's a chance you're hearing that. Even new ones. They just shift a bit in the discs and you hear that clunk. It's a subtle clunk and I've never "felt" it.

 

Quick question. This VW Hill I keep hearing about. It's in New Hampshire?

 

Yep, basically same location as 3 bears.

 

Offshoot of the 3 bears trail. Yes
