Ohhkay, soo I have a 2021 First Edition.
I have 3k miles on it, made my first offraod endeavor last weekend with the PNW Bronco Club, went to Juniper Sand Dunes here in Washington state.
The noise was noticed when I was following the group out to the dunes over some serious washboard,whoops, I was noticing a very LOUD clunk at around 7-8mph when the rig would peak at the top of the whoops, it is so noticeable that you can feel it, along w hearing it, so I slowed down and took it easy, the rest of the broncos were long gone, they must have been doing 20mph or more over these same whoops, so I eventually caught up at the dunes and started asking people, hey does anyone have this loud clunking coming from front suspension, the reply was no from everyone except 1 person in a 22 wild track.
Now I have been able to re create the sound over speed bumps in the parking lot.
Ford put it on a lift visually inspected told me everything is fine. I checked struck mounts and bolts were to spec, checked all suspension bolts and they are to spec. Took into ford and they did a drive along and confirmed the noise. Now we took a Badlands w SAS and swaybar disconnect, and it made the same noise as mine.....someone PLEEEEEASE help me understand WTF the noise is.....it makes me cringe everything I hear it....
