Re: Annoying little "clunk" sound. Worn Shocks?

Found the "clunk" - it was the left front shock. When these oem gas shocks fail they usually leak oil, which is easy to check. The leak will not be enough to show on your garage floor, but the leaking shock will look different from the others being covered with greasy grime. I replaced both front shocks, and checked every suspension fastener. All were very tight, except the bottom shock bolts, which were not exactly "loose", but not tightly torqued. I used Loctitie "Blue" on all shock fasteners.
