Xmas maintenance
here is a few little things about my car that I d like gone
1) like some many other, when I get to 25 mph and make turn in neutral , wide turn, the rear end does clack clack clack sound. some says its the u joint going bad , it sounds like that just want your imput
I d like to add that it never does that at speed or under 5mph
2) and thats the biggest thing, when making a tight turn at 25 to 35 mph I hear a loud humpppp, heavy vibratio coming from my left frond end , like if the whole part of the car want to die!!!, so I slow down right away and then drives normally , but this mean I cant make quick turns ( kind of suck I wanted a sports car, not an suv...)
please let me know what you think please , I d like to take care of that at the same time that I ll be doing LTs, ORY etc.. in the spring
thanks

I'm thinking motor and tranny mounts. I would check there after you make sure all the lugs are on tight. I had a rear clunking that turned out to be my tranny mount. The thump and vibration in your front end is probably either coming from your rack or motor mount.

thank you , I ll look for those
1) soundscoming from the back while under no throttle or light, I thought it was the U joint, but I ll check the tranny mount, I have to anyway because when I shift sometime I feel like the tranny mount or something is going bad because I get lots of moving in the shifter, anyway that should be ok to fix
2) second think is the vibration, huuuuuuump sound I get from the front end on the left while making under 30mph sharper truns, this I dont know....I ll check on the rack and motor mount ( whats is a rack mount ?)
by no means this make the car not enjoyable to drivebut I want to get rid of this little things, I m sure I will with the help of everybody here and doing some search
by the way I got my tire balance this afternoon while doing a rotation and what a difference it make as far as vibration on highway, cant wait to put on the bilsteins HD and get soem more mod in january ( LTs, ORY, brakes , etc...)
anymore imput guys ?
