Left front end pings when going over speed bumps

Yea that’s the same here. Sometimes I get it at the top of the bump, others at the bottom of the bump

 

That's was my next one to mention. Skid plate.

This was the noise I had for reference.

Edit*

It would also make the noise going both up and down over speed bumps most of the time

 

Could be the body/cab mount bushing.

 

you said your was your aftermarket skid plate correct? im running stock and have the noise... feel like it cant be a skid plate if im just getting the noise in the snow. Let me know if you make any headway though. I guess ill have to wait to see if it decided to fix itself over the summer? Ha

 

yeah but youd think it would make that noise on every big hit. but it just happens on snowy roads for me

 

yeah, i assume you can feel that through the floor as well?

 

That’s a bit more extreme than mine. I might have to try doing the same

 

That is exactly the noise I have. Hopefully mine is the same diagnosis.

 

I have a clank again.... I had changed all my suspension and it went away. I returned to stock and now the noise is back, only over speed bumps. But it's not every time.

 

Have the same problem and took mine to dealer. Told me There’s a lower control arm washer that gets bent and makes the noise but Toyota has not came up with a solution. Waste of time that place is.

 

ever so slightly maybe

 

i have this same ping when going over a speed bump with decent speed. I can hear the ping and almost feel it through the brake pedal.

 

I took my 18’ back to the dealer within the first month for a similar noise in the same area when going over bumps. My dealer couldn’t figure it out. I swapped to full Mobtown skids now and it stills there sometimes so I know it wasn’t the stock skids. I feel it mainly in the gas pedal. My sounds makes a “boing” sound with it too usually and happens mainly on slow lefts with hard bumps. Only happened once off road, which was recent. Mainly happens when making a left over the dip into my community. I thought I read a thread that said it may be ABS system doing a self test/check??

 

For all of you, torque those Lower control arm alignment cam bolts/nuts to 130ft#'s and 99x out of 100, your problem will go away.

 

If you had new tires mounted or had the tire off the wheel to do maintenance, I had a tech leave a damn valve stem cap inside my tire and mounted it that way. Ticked and pinged like crazy, drove me drove me insane for a week. Crazy right??

And like someone else said check sway bar and endlinks.

 

Right on, ill have to give it a whirl.

 

... not to sound like a noob... but.... how... and with what...

 

Had this same symptom coming from the same area for a while. I have not heard anything since replacing my OEM shocks 7-8 months ago. I don't know if it was something internal to the shocks or an installation issue but it seems to be gone. I did the installation and torqued everything to spec myself before getting an alignment. Used a 150 ft-lb torque wrench and pulled like hell.

Are you asking how to torque them? For 3rd gen Tacos, you'll need a 22mm socket and a torque wrench that is capable of going up to 130ft#'s
