Clunking sound from front right when in 2wd and not 4wd
I just recently purchased a 2001 Quad cab with 115k. I haven't driven it a whole lot until yesterday. I have a clucking like sound in front end when in 2wd and not in 4wd. It gets worse when I turn. I jacked up the front end and spun both left and right sides. Left sounded normal and right side had clucking sound coming from what sounded like inside the front end. everything I could see seemed to look ok. Any ideas?
Take your front axles and try and twist them.....if theyre anything like mine, youll be able to move them a ton due to the ujoints being junk. I do advise caution when using 4wd. If it is your ujoints your axles can make quick work in removing the joints
