Default Knock in Steering When Goin over Bumps
Everytime I go over big bumps I hear a knock coming from the front in. I do have 35's on was wondering if it was my toyos hitting the uca since it is so close or is ball joints/bearing. Anybody have any ideas?

all you can realy do is look at them if they are like on a superduty. if the bushings look like they are squished then they are bad
