Suzuki 4WD Club of Victoria

I recently put a new king pin/swivel hub kit thru it, recoed wheel bearings (usual source of this noise)
and replaced a dinged drag link/tie bar.

But although it drives very nice now, it still makes the noise.

It is hard for me to sense direction of sound, and hard to reach areas to feel while at the steering wheel

Power steering box (vitara type) has been leaking for a while, and is at the end of its adjustment.

Could this be the problem?
I can feel it at the steering wheel.

While motor is out, probly a good time to do it anyway.

I should just get all my money sent to mick at suziworld

Thanx all

I got the nice neighbor to wiggle the steering wheel, while I was underneath.
The drivers side 2nd spring was moving sideways against the main spring.
Rust wasn't helping either.
Friction pads wore out yonks ago.
The loosened off spring clamps had stretched out further than was good, maybe from extra travel?
Bit of grease and tightened the clamps a tad, and all is good.
Tho a new steering box would be wise, it can now wait.
At least I now got lots of good front end stuff as a result of fixing wrong bits.

Since greasing and servicing the front suspension, it's been handling much better.
Lost it's stiffness that I was blaming the shox for.
(Sounded worse from a rattling roof, too)
So I've refitted my brand new OME shox, and removed the extra bumpstop spacer, that the commo shox needed.
I'm very happy with the ride and travel now, on and off road.
Why did I take so long to notice the rusted up springs
Must have had my mind in wrong gear last year.
I'm pleased that OME shox are still good products
