hey guys well i need help, well not that long ago i was driving and i hit a speed bump and boom the rear shocks blew out so later that day i replaced both of them and it the noise went away alil but now when you drive it ,it sounds like something is loose and i have no idea what to do now , please help!!! btw it's a 1988 dodge ram van b150

 

Well neither do we when you don't give us anything to go on.

Is it in the front or the back, the left or the right? Sounds loose when moving, sitting still, turning left, turning right, going uphill, going downhill, going over bumps, accelerating decelerating, or applying the brakes?

 

does it make any noises when making a phone call?

 

Was the speed bump taller than the curb and how fast were you going?

The noise may be the exhaust, brake lines rattling, rear drum springs broken, rear brake self-adjusters poped, etc ...

 

it was in the back right but i changed both of them , you only hear it when your moving and you hear it when you hit any small pot hole or anything

 

no it was a small speed bump ,like 2in or so. i was going like 25-30mph
the weld for the exhaust broke but i fix that already , and i'll check the rest out today thanks

 

Did you break a mount or a u-bolt for the spring?

It could also be that the one (or both) of the brake shoes hold down pins broke. You'll have to pull off the drum to check that out.

 

what do you mean hold the pins down ? btw i took off both back wheels off and one drum became loose and one didn't

 

You're misquoting me. I didn't say, "hold the pins down", I said the "brake shoe hold down pins" could've broke. These are pins that come through the backing plate, through the brake shoes, through a spring, and then are held in place by a round retainer with a slot in the center.

 

well tomorrow i'll take a picture of the rear brakes without the drum so you guys could tell me if anything look broken or wrong
