Unidentifiable Noise - Please Help!KBORNKESSEL 01-07-2006, 09:52 PM Hey Guys, I Have A 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4x2. There Is A Hollow Thump (loud) On Any Tiny Little Bump. Rock, Pothole, Speed Bump, Stick In The Road, Road Imperfections - Anything. I Have Replaced The Sway Bar And The Shocks. Brake Pads, Tires, Axle Seals. If You Put Your Ear On The Fenders (inside) It Sounds Like It Is Right There. But I Can't Believe It Is The Springs. Please Help - Thanks Guys! jeeperphil 01-09-2006, 08:30 PM How do you get your ear on the fender while going down the road over bumps?!? Seriously, it could be a cv joint. They can make kind of a hollow popping sound at times. Also broken engine mounts pop at times under bumps or torgue. Hope this helps narrow it down. dksob81 01-10-2006, 08:15 AM It might be the bar pins in the lower shock mounts (front shocks). If you look on page #2 on the forum, toward the bottom there is a thread about the bar pin eliminators, sounds like this is your problem. BenBB 01-10-2006, 09:54 AM There are also the stabilzer link arms that go from the sway bar to the axle, and the boot at the top of that can go out, and as a result it will clunk on the spring. Also if that is it when you turn you will notice more body roll, thats a pretty good indicator. My '96 used to make sounds everytime i went over a bump, hole or something. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
