Suspension Knock

[Coxy]

Hey all.
Almost every time I go over a bump in the Cruiser, or sometimes when turning sharp, a bang/knock comes out of the front end somewhere.
Someone said it might be the spring rubbers worn, but they look alright.
Could anyone please help me out?

Cheers
Steve

Well it could be a whole pile of things.
Shock absorber or mounting,shifting leaf pack,tie rod,worn out springs.

This is lowered a couple of inches so maybe there is something touching like the spring or shock bottoming out.

Spring rubbers,do you mean the shackle bushes? If theyve been there since new they must have some wear probably where you cant see.

I have put new sway bar rubbers in, new shocks and rubbers, and new right hand tie rod end.
Spring shackles might be worn, have to check it out.

Cheers

I'll have to look and see if it's the shackles.
