Jingle F***ing Bells...

DentalDart · Feb 21, 2020

I got everything put back together and I got a nice louder jingle... I checked the front suspension and everything appears to be tight. Does this sound like anything maybe youve heard before?

To me it sounds like a nut/bolt or something metal is loose and bouncing around, but is it the rear end that is pinging? Is this what it sounds like? First video is shorter but sounds better, it happens at about 25mph until I start to slow down. I'll probably jack it up tomorrow and again double check to make sure all the nuts/bolts are tight.

We made it to pick up my son from school though!

Wont play. Need to load it onto youtube and post a link.

Rocks in the wheels/ brakes

Check the sway bar end links if you have a front sway bar, just a guess.

Is it still not playing? I can play it through my phone, I uploaded a Google drive link. I dont have youtube...

Seeing as you have been battling with the rear brakes, i would go there first.

Will check right now. Could it be the redline center caps maybe? Although they both seem tight.

Will check this as well, they both seemed tight.

Take off the caps and see if the sound goes away. Or if someone put some change in one ;)

Tooljunkie · Feb 21, 2020

Or a loose nut.

DentalDart · Feb 21, 2020

Sway bars definitely tightened.

I think it could be this, which is for the original shifter linkages? It just kind of flops around not attached to anything and sounds a little like the rattling. Can I take it off somehow?

Tooljunkie · Feb 21, 2020

I loaded goigle drive just for you.
Sounds like hold down hardware is floating around.

I dont see why not, pull the hairpin and slide it off.

Sounds like rear drums brake heardware came loose.

Tooljunkie · Feb 21, 2020

There is a hex on the stud, could remove the whole thing.

I'll check it out!

Edit- removing rear wheels now to check the drums! Woohoo

Muffler clamp? Buddy of mine used to mess with people and put an extra clamp on for some customers....a loose one lol.
Could be the sequins on your red sneakers?

That's definitely a possibility too! I've been messing with the rubber hold downs/ clamps since I fixed the exhaust leak.

I removed it and it was a no go on the noise leaving. Dang I would really love for something to be easy and straight forward one day haha

@4spdragtop

Ps- there are no sequins on my shoes today! Just some awesome high tops! My pts love all the fun shoes and socks I wear every day.

Garrett Ellison · Feb 21, 2020

It sounds just like an exhaust loose clamp, donut gasket, etc. That's the sound they make right before coming apart.

4spdragtop · Feb 21, 2020

When I see red shoes.....and striped socks... :poke:

Starwars!

Will check out all the exhaust clamps again after the rear drums

DentalDart · Feb 21, 2020

Not the drums or the rear most exhaust clamps even though that one by the muffler sucks and doesn't hold the exhaust tight enough to the body.

I did have some amazing help though!
