    Suspension "Clunk" when turning right 2021 ram 2500 500 miles.

    I had to retighten the mounts 3-4 times after replacing them before the "clunk" went away for good. If I remember correctly, the recommended torque is 90 ft-lbs but I exceeded it the last time with the help of a grand pubah torque multiplier... For the record, I don't recommend doing that

    Suspension "Clunk" when turning right 2021 ram 2500 500 miles.

    It's one of the body mounts if you're certain that the suspension components are tight (most likely one or both front mounts).

    I had to loosen all 4 body mount bolts on the opposite side and remove all 4 on the same side….pray that your bolts aren’t rusty like mine because that was by far the biggest PITA.

    Suspension "Clunk" when turning right 2021 ram 2500 500 miles.

    Had this exact noise myself and it ended up being the body mount. The way I found it was the bolt that holds the assembly together was off center about 1/2" and the others were centered.. Replaced it and no more random clunking noise. Part # (68505696AA)
