95 suburban. thump sound when stopping
hi everyone,
i have a 95 chevy suburban 5.7 1500 with 135k miles. when i come to a stop i hear and feel a thump. i did find that the leaf spring clamps were loose and one was broken. i replaced them but the problem is still there. also lately the "thump" has been noticeable when i drive off from a stop. any ideas on what it could be? thanks in advance. chuck
