I might have a something going or gone in the front of my truck,
I have constant clunking, humming, and a slight vibration at hwy speeds, just started to notice the clunking and humming about 2 weeks ago.
56,000kms

Also does anyone know what the torque specs are for the front end of my truck?
I want to double check everything else is tight

 

Ball joints, tie-rod ends, sway bar links are the first thoughts

 

Getting it looked at Tuesday, well see what they come up with.Tie

Tie-rods where done at 20K, so they might be gone again at 56K

I've noticed the parts seam to wear faster in the Cold and the lame ruff roads in this town prob don't help either.
Pavment cracks and pot-holes everywhere,

are there aftermarket tie-rods for our trucks?

 

Check those wheel bearings also.

 

Had the truck at the dealer today.
They seem to think the hummm I have is from the front drive shaft, (I was thinking wheel bearing) but we'll see what happens when it gets installed thursday.
also the upper control linkage (or whatever it's called again) is also getting replaced, that what the clunking is from, the ball joint it prob toast!

I'll keep you updated.

 

Well they replace both front sway bars and the front drive shaft,

The clunk is gone and the front of the truck even sits higher after the two sway bars

the hum seems to be gone after replaceing the front drive shaft, they think is was the cone inside that was huming.
