history replaced ALL tie rod ends, both pitmans and aligned problem is when you turn the wheels while traveling makes a clunking noise and jumps a little. Have noticed upper a arms hit shocks on both sides. Do I need to replace bushings and bearings? Little help would be great on this have owned many, but have never had this problem before.

Did you ever find the cause of this?

I have the same thing happening. Except it seems to be coming from the left rear.

I have a 2004 Chevolet 5.6 engine. Suburban with 66400 miles on it and I have in the last week notice a humming noise while driving it.I think it is a fan belt, but when I have the hood up I don't hear anything.
Help. Thanks . Lowell Hubbard

The noise could be the CV joint wearing, with it jacked up you are putting the CV joint at a higher angle the larger tires put more strain on it also. You say it is jerking that tell's me that it is in the drive line, also check and make sure that the 4 wheel drive has disengauged. Hope this helps
