Hello all,
I am getting a slight thunk in the driver's side front suspension. I thought it might be the LCA ball joint, but I see no play when I tested the up and down movement, literally no movement at all from the LCA joints. The LX has 240k miles on it, for reference. I see no leaks from the shocks, could this be it...just worn? I have read on here that the shocks can last quite long with proper AHC maintenance. I completed a full service on the system last year and Techstream shows everything within factory spec. Based on what I feel, it would seem it's a ball joint. I just replaced the UCA ball joints on both sides and I still feel it. I have gone through the whole truck and nothing is standing out and I don't want to just replace parts for the sake of it. Any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated from this knowledgeable crowd.
