Hi guys,
I'm having an issue with something. In my front left wheel, there is a thudding noise mostly noticeable when I go over speed bumps or when I'm just coming to a stop and the cars settle back. Can anyone tell me what this might be?

Thanks

Had the same problem with my 93 S-10 blazer and discovered a missing transmission mounting bolt gone on the left side. After I replaced it I never heard that thumping noise again going over any bumps or tight turns.

had that happen in a 1991 blazer. Turned out to be a rotten lower control arm. In my 2001 my ball joints needed to be greased to get rid of an intermitent clunk. Good luck.

Yea, get your front end checked by your favorite mechanic.

DON'T GO TO THE DEALER!

Sounds like a stabilizer bar and end links could be bad.
