Got it up on jack stands today to determine where a popping/clunking noise was coming from. Looks like my pitman and idler arm are trashed. Then I cranked the torsion bars a little to get my front right tire to stop rubbing in reverse.
It was a little lose going over bump, didn't instill alot of confidence at speed with those 33x12.5 MT'S. It drives better now but I still have that loud popping noise I've been chasing. Now it's almost constant. The front end mechanic that did the work today said the rest of my front end is nice and tight and that he believes the noise is coming from my rear leaf spring bushings and shackles. I can hear and feel it in the front floorboard though, but I guess I'm feeling it traveling through the frame.Was the steering loose?

Shaking is gone now with the new pitman arm and idler. I'm going to buy a torch and replace the leaf spring bushings with some polyurethane ones and get some new shackles next.Could be the steering column making the noise and shaking
