Subject:Clunk up front when starting from dead stop
From:Jeffrey R
Date:Sat, 20 Mar 1999 15:10:17 EST

When starting from a dead stop there is a clunk which seems to be coming
from the passenger front wheel/suspension area. A preliminary look both on the
ground and jacked up did not reveal any glaring problems.

I understand the torsion bar could be suspect. Is there a trick to
investigating this. It appears fine, but I understand a crack can be
ellusive. (I have a 2-wheel drive 83.5 Westy)

TIA
