Clunking sound on Gen 3 too

[BlueWhale]

Aside from annoying noise, is there any harm driving for few thousand miles?

Nope

6,000 miles of clunks and no harm done yet. Just annoying.

I want to go out and pound some bumps and see if it goes away like it did on my 19

I'll have mine out in the dunes at Dumont this afternoon. I'd love to beat it into compliance.

I take it none of you addressed the lower control arm bolts (cam bolts at the proper high torque), or the clearance issue in the shock mounts? I can’t believe you guys are pulling your hair out on this… super easy fix. Why complain when you can fix it.

That's not the issue.

Short video of the above mentioned dumont trip. It was a brief stop on my way to settle my grandfather's estate in Parumph, NV. Had fun for a half hour on the sand.

There are about 3 or 4 of the same posts in this thread from him. Always references an old thread about it that I haven't found. I spent $300 having the cam bolts replaced with heavy duty 12.9 grade hardware and torqued to spec. Made no difference and my clunk is not coming from the suspension according to 2 shops. Both thought it was driveshaft related. A transmission shop also agreed it was likely coming from the transfer case after they looked at it.
