Over the last month or so, i have noticed a clunking/knocking noise from the front passenger wheel when turning slow or parking and turning the steering wheel, but when on a long journey home tonight, i was driving at 60mph max and just taking my time, when ever i took my foot off the gas i got a really strong knocking vibration from the passenger side wheel i think and vibrating towards the middle, hard to tell as i was driving, strange thing was though, that it only happened when my foot was off the gas!!
Any ideas?? front drive shaft, or could it be something to do with the 4wd drive shaft system?? That is my best way of describing it, any questions and ill answer them best i can. -------------------- ![]() |

the clunking coming from your wheels while you turn points to the cv joint as the culprit. as far as the vibrations go, sounds like you're ball joint is bad. From your descripition my opinion is that whenever you let go of the gas the wheel losses its castor and pivots back and forth. This is isn't the safest way to cruise around. get your cv and ball joints looked at. the last thing you need is to drag your control arm on the highway.
