Sierra? Check all your spring bushes, shock bushes, steering ball joints etc

brake pad guides can often become a little loose in their home and chatter... has someone at work been a funny bugger and given you a cable tie and a handful of washers someware!?

Sorry yes sj51 sierra. all suspension bushes are new,steering joints have no visible probs,not ruling them out though.

Foolspeed-maybe,brakes do need to be bled properly

Do you have a swaybar (stabilizer) fitted? Check the bushes & end links.

Not anymore,widetrack axles at narrowtrack spring spacing so would need custom swaybar

I think I know what it might be. Just need to ask... Boxers our briefs?

Yeah, changing to briefs should tighten up the nuts on your bump clinkers...

I much prefer the free range of movement provided by boxers!
