Clong Cling Clang Badaboom Cling Cling!!!

Post by ChuckBlack »

Great news!
I was finally able the find my Clung Cling Clang Badaboom Cling Clong noise that I've been having for some time! Normally I would get my hand dirty and resolve the case asap but all that nice weather has gotten me all mountain biking ridemolition excited! Anyhow, believe it or not but to properly diagnose a Clung Cling Clang Badaboom Cling Clong noise in french you need good coffee, patience and tolerance!!! :-D I checked all Bushings, mounts, tie rods and ball joints to realize that I was missing on an important aspect of the case... When, where, how and what noise does it do when it happens! Voila putin de putin de bordel de patente a goss! J'ai trouve mon bobo!!! Upper ball Joint!!! You little GRTRRRRRRRRRRTRTR~~~~!!! Anyhow great news that is my problem...

Ever troubleshooted something that made such noise but weren't able to pin point the location???

Yep, I have been there as well...I was lucky, it was just rotted bushings on the front sway bar. Glad you found it!
