Stiff front end.
#1
This may be from the lift, but when I hit a speed bump or a pot hole, it honestly feels like the front has no suspension at all. Its solid as a rock. I can hear a clunking sound coming out of the front end. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Ill get the picture first thing tomorrow. To dark right now. But for tires it has 35/12.50/15 Laramie Trailcutter Radial R/T's. Honestly not 100% on the type of lift or shocks either. Ill check those out tomorrow also.

Is there a tracking bar drop bracket on the Bronco? If you don't have one on your Bronco with any lift bigger then a 2.5 it will make a Bronco drive all over the place when you hit a bump or pot hole.

That could be it. The lift was done by 2 owners before me. Can you get me a picture of what exactly the tracking bar drop bracket is and where is location would be! Thanks!

I forgot that you are working on a new year bronco. It also could be the pitman arm. You have the Twin I beam. I look on Jeffs Bronco grave yard and could not find the track bar drop bracket.

Noooooooooo! Stay away from the light... We'll save you from the dark side (Mopar) - sorry Liz... Just give us some time, and ask all the questions you've got!

It'll be a little challenging since you don't know exactly what the previous owners put in... but we'll get there. Short of knowing what shock/springs you have under there, next thing is do you have dual front shock hoops or just single?
