Noticed it today really bad, only a little bit on other days.

If i cut the wheel all the way and im either going in reverse or turning, i hear a loud Slap, almost like metal on metal. Or maybe it even sounds like a Pop noise.

Tire rod maybe??


Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

my 04 lightning was doing the same thing when i was parking and turning the wheel .i saw a thread i believe it was this forum but not sure about six months ago about that problem.took truck to dealer and the problem was fixed.this sound pissed me off though and it seems like alot of trucks have same problem. u would think ford would make a recall.

 

It's the infamous "CLUNK"

do a search for clunk washers and you'll find all your answers.

 

Sometimes this noise is caused by lack of grease on steering stop.

 

Install 'clunk' washers on your left side lower rear control arm bushing and keep your steering stops greased.
