While at the track the other night I had a loud “clunk†while launching on my last run. It sounded like it was coming from the rear end. On my way home, I couldn’t reproduce the sound until I put the car into reverse. I heard it again, just not as loud. Yesterday, I got back under the car. I checked everything that I recently installed, and it was all tight. One thing I did notice, was that the locking nut’s metal flange (or whatever it is) for the LCA on the passenger side was sitting on my rear sway bar. I adjusted that thinking it might fix the problem. I also changed the wheels back to stock, and noticed that if I pull on a wheel, I hear a clunk. Everything was tight, the lugs were not loose and torqued to spec. Now when I push/pull the wheel moves a hair, nothing drastic, but enough to move, and make a sound. And it happens on both sides. Is this normal? If so, what’s the reason?
If that’s not the problem I have no idea where else to look. Could the shifter be the problem? It’s the only other thing I installed, and didn’t check. Anyone have any other ideas?
