Hello,

I have a clonk (you can hear it when pressing hard by hand) in the front
suspension of the car (mainly passenger side).
Any idea as to where to look?
The bushings are new, everything is well greased, nothing seems to move
(when it should not).

I have a 78 which was converted to chrome bumper, which gives it a
higher ride at the front. Could that be a cause (ie, working at the
'end' of the front shocks throw)?

Also, what is the best way to lower the front suspension (by 1" or so)?
Putting bushings between the coil seat and the A arm?

Regards, cyrille
