I know diagnosing over the internet is easy to do. So let's try this one.
My 1969 S code 4 speed vert is now making a noise (a knocking sound) in the right front end when turning right. The noise has gotten louder and now it can be "felt". I greased the fittings in the front end, including the three that are behind the front tire, and this seemed to alleviate the noise, but it is back again.
I checked the tie-rods and they all seem tight. Might this be a ball-joint issue?, Or what about the hinged joint behind the front tire? (not even sure of the name of it) I had the tire off, but was not able to get a wiggle out of the disc left to right or top to bottom. Is there another "test" to see what the issue might be?
If I need to swap out some suspension/steering parts, someone recommended www.justsuspensions.com to me as a place to go for replacement.
Thank you in advance for any thougths/ideas. For this is what makes this site one of the best around.
