Re: Clunking knocking sounds

Did you take brake calipers off? Could be as simple as caliper bolts not tight enough. Had this on a friends bus. He could'nt find the source of the knocking. I drove it and lightly applied pressure to brake pedal with left foot and knocking stopped. Similar thing happened on a friends Bay Window. ...

Re: Clunking knocking sounds

Pretty sure yeah. I thought it might be the radius rods but they are both tight. It’s as the van is going over bumps and on rougher roads.

Clunking knocking sounds

Hey knowledgeable people. I have replaced all the front suspension bushes on my 1982 t25. Everything is tight to required spec yet when I’m driving I hear knocking and clunking sounds. There is a bit of play in the steering rack. Any suggestions on how to remedy this?

Cheers

Michael.
