Re: Coilover Kit/Suspension Upgrades

Sounds like your entire axle was loose. The lower shock mount is attached to the bottom of the trailing arm using the same U bolt. GM says to torque those U bolts to 230 ft lbs

My axle was loose and made a clunking noise every time the truck shifted weight. It was so loose that I could see a decent gap between the axle and trailing arm
