I did a SRA swap now car is knocking/clunk when I hit bumps. I have UPR double adjustable UCA’s with solid bushings on axle and TQ box. UPR LCA’s with poly bushings and some cheap shocks. The car doesn’t seem to make noise while accelerating. Is it the shocks not fitting correctly or is it the solid bushings?

It is most likely the solid bushing. I have all heim joints and my axle sounds like it is gonna fall out when I hit bumps.

I agree. I have some knocking and clunking coming from mine as well. Having it looked at while at the shop getting my motor worked on. Hopefully its nothing serious.

Could it be that you guys aren't running a Pinion Snubber and when you guys go over a dip there nothing to stop the Diff from hitting? The Stock IRS dosent have one only solid axle cars came with them.
