The noise is still there and I am about to destroy the car, scrap it and just buy another one! :oops: :shock:

Parts Replaced:

- New 2.5" (60mm roughly) Lift Front and Rear
- Blackhawk 3 degree fixed offset UCAs
- PhatBars Diff drop
- New CVs (Replacement for the third time)
- New Nolathane swaybar links and D-Bushes
- New Steering Rack/Rack ends/Tie rod ends
- Replaced front shocks and all bushes
- Wheel alignment done

Pending:

- SuperPro Lower Control Arms
- Wheel Bearings Front L/R

Alterations made to try and locate noise:

- Removed Swaybar and link pins
- Removed Front Diff and front shaft
- Removed CVs completely

Noise is still there I'm at a loss with this car, I really enjoyed this vehicle at the start but this noise is making it so hard to not think of it as another piece of shit, Also my Mrs is fed up hearing about it from me so either I fix it or it gets sold soon, No mechanic I take it to in Melbourne can find the noise either!

Rather than scrap it look at my last post in the other thread. If you Don't find the problem, let me know, I'll happily take it off your hands rather than let it get scrapped. ;)

Have you tried to tighten the bolts of the rear leaf springs?
Maybe the sound is carried from behind through the frame.
There is nothing much left at the front axle to make a sound.

Tricky thing,

Can you feel the clunk up through the steering wheel much?
