Hay all

Been trying to narrow out my front end problem. Im getting a thud in the front end somtimes when i accelerate while crusing. Sometimes when turning a corner on the same throttle then using abit more throttle it will make a slight front end movement Then when i chirp gears it will thud aswell it feels like wheels are bouncing hard to explain. So ill try to avoid doing this. All my engine mounts are new. I first thought my control arm bushes were cracked. But rechecked and they are very slightly cracked they actually look ok. So i definaly dont think this is causing the problem. Wat else cause cause this.?

Thanks Kurt

Bouncing wheels when nailing it is wheel tramp.. Now u have LSD it will happen as you have a heav foot and not enough power to spin tyres. The rest sounds like something is loose.? did u check all 3 mounts..?

I have not checked the mounts ill check tomoz. But when the wheels bounce theres a nice big thud with it through the cabin.
