97 Pathfinder wheel noise & Rear end noise

Topic starter

hey guys, on my 97 pathfinder with 180k I installed new suspension parts front and back last year.

On the front on both sides I changed the control arms, ball joints, kyb struts but used back original springs, inner and outer tie rods, sway bar links. New rack and pinion mount bushings.

On the rear changed upper and lower control arms, Panhard rod, sway bar links. Kyb rear shocks have been changed few years ago and still perfectly fine. 

Now on the front when making a right turn over any rough road that would cause bouncing, I hear a metal like noise. Additionally sometimes I would hear a clunk. Now one thing I didn’t change was the sway bar bushings. 

My rack does need changing by next summer at least as there is some noise inside of it and did develop a leak that At-205 fixed for now. 

Additionally, when pulling off from a stop I would get a clunk noise from the rear. I checked the driveshaft and there is no play going into the differential, but there is some on the end going into transmission. Ujoints are still solid. On this driveshaft you cannot change the yoke out by itself, only the whole driveshaft. Can I pull out the driveshaft and lube the splines of the yoke that go into the tranny? 

Any advice for these front and back noises?

you can try lubing it and pray that helps because on those the weakest part is the automatic transmission and it could be internal to the transmission
