If your CV's are at a steep angle you could always lower the front down a bit, I would check the front anti roll bar bushes where the ARB is bolted up to the x member, i'm getting a nice clonk/grind noise as I go over the speed bump outside my house checked the drop links & they seem ok but the bushes look slightly oval'ed around the ARB at the x member so think this might be the problem

Mine were just fitted at ricks last weekend, think we may have changed how they bolted on, wasn't watching really, still the 4wd bit is strange though.

Not sure what my next step is

Actually, I have just watched a load of "pootube videos" of people's cv noise issues ect

Pretty damn sure that's my noise.

Alex your CVJ is bad and will have to be replaced, full stop, sorry but my internet connection is bad, taken hours to get this far, mainly cos I have purchased a two post vehicle lift and needed to pay for it which I have just done but very hard work as says I have 2g but does not connect most of the time, Rick
