Clink/clank/clunk in the front end. At parking lot speeds when changing direction. Very similar noise to when rear LCA’s need tightening.
Any go-to’s?
Quick visual shows nothing but I haven’t been able to get reliable help to sit in the vehicle and move it with me under it. Can’t feel anything different etc.
2020 Rubicon, stock suspension except Bilstein shocks, 96k miles, no other new developments.
Thanks!

Mike, I had a clunk twice now, both times usually low speed changing direction or turning, drove me nuts , which you know is not that far from normal.
It was a 3/4' shackle under the rear seat just moving a bit and I could replicate it by just pushing it 1/2 ". Second time was my Estwig camper axe, so if you have anything under the rear seat or something under either seat take a look. I ordered a waxed cotton bag from OVS along with a wrench roll and a socket set roll., to stop it from happening again. It was amazing how the noise sounded like it was underneath.
Take care my friend....jack
