Clunking noise

[ellik]

Ive got a loud clunking noise every time i hit abump. I used to attribute it to the exhaust i put on, rattling on the cross member, but now its getting worse. Now, it clunks just by coming to a stop and putting it in reverse and backing up. Think it might be tranny mounts. Any thoughts?

Sounds like it could be the tranny mount. Crawl under there with a flashlight and check out the mount on the crossmember. If it looks ok at a glance, try pushing the tailhousing around and see if the mount holds it.

If it is shot, now would be a good time to upgrade to a poly mount ;)
