set pinion angle, now cluncking!! help
Ok, i have a spohn non tranny mounted TA. I adjusted the pinion angle today. Its set at -3. well as i was driving it, when i hit a hump i would hear a banging or a cluncking sound. Any ideas on what it could be? The car isnt lowered btw. The car has bite, but just bangs or cluncks. Also, it feels like the rear or the car is raised up now. Is that normal?

you ahve the body mount ta? if so the clunkin is saposed to be normal but in your case sound excesive. go under there and tighten every nut on the whole ta again espesialy the ones where the crossmember mounts to the body
