The bus in the last couple of days has developed a klonking sound from the o/s wheel tub. Removed the jack under the seat in case it was tricking me by knocking on the seat base, but no.
It sounds like a shock bush, but I fitted new shocks not long ago :? not inconcivable that a bush has gone, but wondered if there might be another cause? it seems quite constant.
 
Just to add, the steering is fine with no pulling or wandering, and no vibration. Just this irritating klonk :(
 
Mate its probably the shock, go and tighten the bolts that hold it, think it was the lower one on mine, sounded like the susspension was banging everytime i went over a pothole 8)

Just
 
I'll have a look tomorrow, does sound like the knackered bushes it had before I fitted the new shocks. Does keep knocking with every bump in the road.
Hopefully it is just loose and not anything more serious.
 
Found out what it is, worn top ball joint :( Ok chaps, whats the sp with changing it?

Can't complain as I have only had to change the front shocks since I've had her :)
