bring it to a shop and lift it up see if anything loose or metal touching the pipes or something.

Yeah, you will definnitly see wear marks or shinny spots on parts. Especially if it is the mid-pipe going over the axle. Sometimes its hard to see because when you jack the car up, all of the clearances change.

I Meant Not Very M,ajor But All This Info Is Very Helpful Ima Halfr To Go To A Shop For Sure Now Just Wanted To See If Any1 Had A Similar Problem.

I had that problem, my spare tire was loose. haha, I was all worried too. on top of that, the plastic peice that covers it wasn't locked in all the way, and it would vibrate when I accelerated due to my exhaust.

it sounds like the bushings, you need to put it in the bushes and leave it, ha! just a little humor, i dont know

**prietodogg** · 03-07-2007, 03:36 PM

have you installed gears on ur car? might be broken gears I had a "klonk" noise coming out of mine and I open up my rearend and some of the gears were broken off. U might wanna check on that that has happen to me twice and both times it was the gears. >: )

**Y2KPewterSS** · 03-07-2007, 06:23 PM

What you are describing sounds like the typical problem of stock lower control arms with bad bushings. Get some new aftermarket control arms and I bet most of your noises disappear.

when i read the title of this post it just made me wanna laugh.

**Ripper415** · 03-10-2007, 06:54 PM

if it's a metalic clunking noise it's prob the spare tire/jack. mine does it when i accelerate fast or go over a bump or around a corner too fast. nothing to worry about though.
