    First time "racing" at High Performance driving at ThunderHill this Friday.

    I understand about the weekday events being tough. I'll check into the HOD event and see if I can make that as well.

    Clunking from the rear when going over bumps?

    I just reproduced the knocking sound (while parked, but warm) and had my wife listen closely for where it was coming from. She swears its from the top of the driver side shock...

    Clunking from the rear when going over bumps?

    UPDATE - I purchased and installed the "shock knock bolt kit" from Viper Specialties and while the bolts do seem much better then stock, it did nothing for my knocking problem. I've tightened every bolt on or around the rear suspension, but am going to check the sway bar bushings again just to...

    Clunking from the rear when going over bumps?

    I did some more reading on this forum and came across a thread called "shock knock" which essentially says the bolts used to hold the shocks and suspension on in the 03+ SRT-10s are not exactly the right size. It had a link to a shop called Viper Specialties that sells replacement bolts...

    Clunking from the rear when going over bumps?

    Guy, the sound I am hearing sounds more like a "knock" then a "clunk". Also, it does not happen over every bump. I tried leaving it in one gear (1st, 2nd, and 3rd) and "bucked" the car (on and off the gas) and the knock didn't happen with any regularity. It seems to happen at random times, a...

    Clunking from the rear when going over bumps?

    Ok, so I removed both rear wheels and tightened every nut and bolt I could see. Sway bar end links, bolts under the a-arms, shock top and bottom bolts, bolts holding the a-arms to the frame, etc. I took the car for a test drive and thought I nailed it because the clunking was gone. No sooner...

    Clunking from the rear when going over bumps?

    This EXACT same thing is happening on my 06 SRT-10 Coupe. It started after an autocross event and has been getting worse the last few days. It's a loud (embarrassing) clunking noise coming from the drivers side rear suspension area. I too have checked the battery and it's really secure. I'm...

    Does your SRT bring you "Rockstar" treatment?

    I totally agree - buy the car that causes you to give yourself a thumbs up every time you open the garage. This is my first post here. I just bought my first viper this week - in fact it has not even arrived from the east coast yet. It's a blue 2006 coupe with the white stripes and blue...
