I changed them on the red beast to, very annoying!!
Make sure it's on a lift so no weight will be on the front axle at all. I'm sure we can find somethingGreat info ,good to know! Mine just started with this clunk! Gotta get under there and see if that is the problem. I hope you guys can find us a better bushing to replace with.
I thought about it but I really don't have it. I thought that Knuckles figured that out with the control arm bushings?Could this be a possible 70 mph vibe source?
I dunno if it's ripped or not. Could just be the "clean" part from being extended. I'll check it out again tomorrow. We were under it for a while. I would think we would have caught that but you never know. Thanks man..... I will check it out.Nice find HB. Hey at the 24-25 sec mark in your vid, looks like your axle, cv boot rubber thing, whatever you want to call it, is ripped to hell on the top side.

Don't think so, I never had the vibrationCould this be a possible 70 mph vibe source?
No lift needed, the front diff doesn't support the jeeps weight it just hangs there by the isolator bushings. Just don't jack it up the Jeep with the front diffMake sure it's on a lift so no weight will be on the front axle at all. I'm sure we can find something
My Jeep was the second video on the bottom. Mine were the worst of all of them. The center of my bushing was basically gone.Good find Harrison. Many people will find this helpful.
How were yours on the jeep?
Oh damn, I didn't ever see the second video. So thing this could effect the 60' for you?My Jeep was the second video on the bottom. Mine were the worst of all of them. The center of my bushing was basically gone.
Thats crazyyyy! You guys are maticulous and thorough in the work and service you offer to your clients. Thanks STAGE 6So.... we've got two Jeeps in the shop right now. Dupree's and Tommy's. One was boosted before, the other was NA with N2O. Dupree hardly used his N2O. Both Jeeps were doing the same thing. I've been thinking I've had wasted engine mounts this whole time.
Whenever I let off the throttle under hard accel., I'd get a loud bang. We thought it was my downpipe hitting the frame. After seeing Dupree's and Tommy's do this, I put my Jeep on the lift. Mine was the worst of all.:lol:
It appears that after some mileage or hard usage, the top front axle mount bushing goes to shit. What are the chances of 3 Jeeps all with different setups all having the same issue? The new part is only about $35.00. We have one that will be at the shop tomorrow and we are gonna see if Energy Susp. makes something that'll fit. Here are two video's. Both Dupree and I after speaking mentioned the same issue. Both of us felt like the whole front end was "loose" over speedbumps. We didn't get a video of Tommy's but it was just like Dupree's. Watch the video's and enjoy.
