Title: clunk when starting and stopping
Post by: molvad on October 26, 2016, 05:29:31 PM
Hi all, I went and looked at a 1986 AMC Eagle yesterday. Everything on it seemed pretty good considering it had 56,000 miles. My biggest concern was a slight clunk from the mid/rear end when accelerating from a stop and coming to a full stop. Any ideas on what this could be from? Something in the driveline or rear suspension?

X2 on the transmission mount will clunk when first put into drive and sometimes multiple clunks if the mount is really bad
