Yes, for awhile I have been hearing a clunk when I back off the accelerator suddenly and let my Jeep coast. Also, since I did the rear control arm recall replacement this Summer I am hearing much more squeaking and sound from underneath.
I am the original owner/driver and after six years parking in my garage every night I have been parking it outside now so maybe some connections are moving.
Any recommendations for how to actual find out what is making these noises ?
Just crawl around under?
The two rubber bushings on the ends of the boomerang (rear upper control arm) mounts directly to the body right underneath the rear seat and when they get worn and weak will make a bad "clunking" noise every time you let of the the go petal or when the tranny is doing some shifting up or down under certain throttle conditions.
You can replace the boomerang with a new one from Mopar or Moog or if you want something real heavy duty you can install an Iron Rock rear upper control arm using one of my custom mounts which allows this upgrade. A little bit more money but the last one you will ever have to purchase as they are super heavy duty units.
PM if interested.
