I was making a left turn a few minutes ago and heard a really odd clunk noise from my VHO. I've never heard it before, anyone have an idea?

 

There is a standing TSB I believe. Needs grease

 

Intermediate steering shaft.Back order part takes 6 to 8 weeks to come in.GET IN LINE A STEALERSHIP!

 

I don't think its the intermediate steering shaft, I had that happen in my other truck and it wasn't this like this is. My VHO has less than 2,000 miles...oh well

 

Was the clunk in the rear?Do you have a G80 locker rear end?

 

i have the G80, but it isn't the locker. This is coming from the front end, and it only seems to happen on left turns at slow speeds (less than 5 mph). It sounds like I am running over something.

 

You might want to check your lug nuts for torque @140ft#'s.I had a friend that had a clunk at low speeds with new rims that turned out to be loose nuts.Alot of tire installer tell you to retorque tires after 50 miles.

 

I sure hope not, i'll check in the morning, but the factory torques the **** out of everything anyway.

 

anyone has ck there tie rod ends? same thing on mine ,lifted one side of the front of the truck and tug the wheel back n fort it had excess play , well took it to the dealer
they said it was the inner tie rods .problem fix . people make the mistake of thinking since we have a rack & pinion that we only have outer tie rods but we have inners too! strange huh?
