Hello all! I've lurked around here for quite some time and have gained so much valuable knowledge for both my 80 and 100 series trucks! With that being said I have searched extensively for a post that describes a front end noise like what I'm experiencing without much luck.
The truck is lifted and has OME torsion bars. The rest of the suspension components are stock and original to my knowledge and inspection with 275k miles. (UCA, diff drop and proper shocks coming with tax return!)
Over the last week my wife has been hearing a continuous clunk/thud in the area of the front driver side through low speed right turns and can be vaguely felt in the footwell. This has since developed into a continuous clunk/thud while accelerating from a stop until about 20 mph but only while under throttle. If you let off the throttle the noise instantly stops and resurfaces as soon as throttle is reapplied. It does seem to be related to wheel speed. I work out of town quite a bit with little time at home so I'm just trying to gather some thoughts from others to help me pinpoint the cause when I get back. We have the typical 100 series clunk with gear selector changes...this is not what I'm referring to.
Thanks for any and all help!
