Knocking noise-please help!!

Post by hector » Sat Oct 07, 2006 12:09 pm

Hi all,

My bongos been making a knocking noise over uneven ground for a while, so did some reading up on the forum and went to check the roll bar brackets but all four front and back are still intact, im a little worried because the handling is suffering now. I also get stering wheel shake at 70mph. Getting worried now any suggestions?

your drop links will cause your bongo to knock over uneven ground if they are worn but i dont know if that will affect the handling of the bongo, and as for the steering wheel shake, that is usually not properly balanced front wheels
