WHATS THIS THUD SOUND!?

[selder1]

anyone able to help me figure out what this noise is on acceleration? I have a 25 Tacoma 3.5 inch lift ready lift. I swear this never used to be there, but now I notice it everytime. Doesn’t happen on every stop and go, kinda random.

What was included in your lift kit? It sounds like maybe a loose rear control arm bolt. Or if new coils were included, maybe the rear control arm bolts were not tightened correctly with weight on the suspension.

Good luck with that one...it would drive me nuts too.

Did you personally torque down your lca bolts after alignment? The torque spec is 205 but alignment shops are used to doing ~110 on 3g tacomas. This made some nasty clunking / creeking for me.

Another source for a similar sound for me was adjustable sway bar end links. I have the dobinsons ones that have a locking nut on them and that had backed out a bit. Both front and rear clunks / creeks resolved after torquing lca to 205 and tightening end links.
