Help with strange knock???

While you're throwing questions back at us, you could be checking it out. You have the car and all the evidence in front of you not us. Forum help only goes so far. You have to provide some, too. All I know is, you described to a TEE what my 65 Valiant was doing. I traced the noise right to the steering coupler. Rebuilt it and the noise was gone. Grab the coupler body in one hand the steering shaft in the other and twist them opposite directions alternating. If that's what it is, a blind deaf mute could tell.

Nothing personal meant, but I just cannot understand why so many people rely so heavily on the internet for this stuff. It's not rocket science. These cars were built by people, not aliens, 40 plus years ago. Those folks put their pants on same as you and me one leg at a time. No magic involved. These cars are like stones and bearskins. You're never going to learn how they work or how they tick until you go out there in the driveway where IT is and grab hold of it. Whether it's the steering coupler, or whatever, the answer is not here. It's in the driveway sittin on four tires. We can help with suggestions, but unless you actually DO them, we are of zero help.
