Re: Front End Popping noise when going over bumps

Hey BlazerLT how you doin'?

You're a pretty savvy guy and your stumped??? LOL

You ain't gonna like this but about a month ago, we had a '95 come in the shop with a noise. Pop would be a good description maybe even a click like a soda can.

On the right side, a little behind where the upper control arm attaches and at the bottom of the frame, there was a 1/2 inch crack.

We cut a plate, drilled the ends of the crack to prevent migrating and welded it up with a MIG.
No more noise.

The noise was more prevelent when making a right turn over and up, like a curb inlet or when backing up to the right.

I hope I'm wrong but it is something to look at.

Good Luck
