I had the same problem. My JKS QD's loosened up on the U bracket that mounts to the sway bar. I tighten it up and noise went away.

My discos make noise too.. But everything is tight. Seems to be the bushing moving in the link. I live with it.

The JKS discos on my 2001 XJ clunked on hard hits. Turned out the top pivots were hitting the coils.
Fixed it by removing the sway bar mounts and grinding the bolt slots so the sway bar sits farther forward when bolted back into position.

Thx for the replies.
I found the culprit last night. My sway bar is hitting the mounting bolts for my front bumper when it cycles. I swear I've looked at the entire setup trying to see WTF was going on a dozen times. Last night I was disconnecting the swaybar and noticed end of the bolt was worn, as well as a wear spot on the swaybar - dohp!

Might need to adjust your trackbar to center the axle?

Same exact thing happened to me! :smsoap:Nice to know your not the only one! I had to remove the washer under the bolt head and shorten the QD links up a bit. Have fun clearancing the QD from the bumper bolt. :roflmao::roflmao::roflmao:
