RK LCA’s, shocks and front trackbar
Caster is about 6.5
BFG 315 KO2’s
Factory tie rod and drag link
Spidertrax 1.75” spacers

When I press the brakes and turn my wheels there is a clunk sound. It does not happen any other time. It just started today.

All RK bolts are torqued to spec and paint marked, so no movement there.

@Roky any ideas?

In the 2nd video, your track bar seems to moving a lot at the frame side connection. Have you tried torquing that bolt?

Not yet. Waiting on the tie rod and drag link I ordered to show up. Then I’m going to tackle the whole job.

The track bar is torqued to spec, so I will remove it and inspect the bushing and bracket. If their are no issues, I will just re-install it with a new bolt and see if it stays put.
