01/15/03 :cry:Did I post this in the wrong forum? I ask because the 'read' counter is steadily climbing, but only 1 response!

01/15/03 :7:I located a nearby truck accessory shop that installs lift kits. The owner and leader installer looked at the lift for about 15 minutes and said that the problems were coming from the kit being an off-brand. He quickly added that I should have purchased a Skyjacker kit. Just so happend that he sells that line of lift...hmmm. It goes without saying that I will never purchase anything from his establishment.
??? I had the RCD lift installed back in Virginia just before my move to sunny Southern Florida. ?Well, with approx. 1000 miles later, the suspension is making some very bad noises. ?When starting from a complete stop a distintive pop and or clunk noise can be heard from the rear of the truck. ?When driving at speeds under 35 mph the same pop and or clunk noise can be heard. ?The creaking noise occurs when turning, but I believe that is normal and coming from the urethane bushings that came with the RCD kit. ?I have not crawled under the vehicle to survey the situation because I don't ?know?what I would be looking at or looking for?!

Could the collective brain power the Fan Club help? ?I would greatly appreciate it. ?Thanks ?
 
No, I have only been driving in two wheel drive and the noises appear to be coming from the rear of the vehicle. So far, I have not found any place to go "off-road" and test out the RCD 6" lift and 305/70R16 tires.
