2004 2500 Front End "clunk"
First time posting on this thread so I will be as descriptive as possible,
I own a 2004 Dodge 2500 quad cab with the 5.7, I noticed a "knocking" noise last week, it is located (or seems to be) on the drivers side front end, at first it was only during deceleration under 5 MPH and slowed with wheel speed, and is not effected by breaking, at first it was effected by turning, now it is not, and it has become more pronounced and starts at about 15 MPH, and decreases with wheel speed, does not make noise during acceleration. I had the front end serviced just before the issue started, they said my wheel bearings are fine and my bushings looked fine, then my problem started. any suggestions would be a huge help, Also, only seems to happen after 10 or so minutes of driving, and does not happen in 4x4

My 04 did exactly that I replaced everything on the front end.. It ended up being the lower control arm bushings. They are a bitch to change though,, I would recommend getting the whole lower control arm with bushing already installed…
