Specs are on the Hellwig instructions. I can't find mine now.

The clunk on mine is usually when we're under way at low speed and also does it with or without the trailer. It does it going straight,but more often when turning. It sounds kinda like when a body panel flexes. I just got new front brakes and then got new ball joints,etc. I was wondering if there is some way that the schock mounts could be loose ?????

Mines not an X, but the u-bolt on the steering stabilizer on my SD came loose and would clunk everytime I hit the brakes.

My clunk was the sway bar drop link bushings were shot. Got the energy suspension kit and all is well. the clunk I had was mainly over speed bumps and such. The top part of the drop links were toast. You need a press to get the old ones out, and the new ones snap right in.
