Hi guys,
Done a couple searches but didnt find much related to my prob.
I have a knock on the front right, happens when ever i go over a bump. 50km/h in the dry seems to be the optimum.
i have replaced the bottom ball joint on both sides as they were worn and also replaced the disc rotors (pulled entire hub assembly apart)
Neither front wheels have any movement in them.
any ideas?
Chris

Re: kzn130 knock
swaybar bushes and links all good? bit of movement might create a knocking noise.
Re: kzn130 knock
did a couple searches, a lot of info but nothing that directly relates to my issue. but if anyone finds something please let me know. will create account and post after more searches, if the kiwi gurus cant pick it. (im sure you guys have it in you!)

I know my rear swaybar is missing a bracket (in process of replacing it) but that shouldn't sound like it is coming from the front? (it has a separate noise while flexing.... doesn't take much)

Re: kzn130 knock
never checked the surf ones but have had trouble with nissans being loose before.
Re: kzn130 knock
did you find the knock? another silly thing to look at is if bumper is rubbing on front guard. found this on my old kzn130 after changing my bumper.

Re: kzn130 knock
shock mount bushes could be worth looking at
