    Anybody have a tip to get this from not banging around when I hit bumps.

    ive replaced the shock/dampener but it seems like the hardware pin that holds it on both ends have a lot of play. This leads to metal on metal contact that's rather loud. Is there any way around this?

    i do have the revised parts installed too.

    Either the pins are also worn out or/and the holes in the brackets are worn out too allowing it the bang around. You could remove the pins and install a bolt that is just a bit bigger in diameter that will still fit and keep it from bouncing around. Or you could wrap the pin is some tape to take up some of the play.

    I thought about replacing the bracket and pins but it doesn't seem like it would solve the problem at all because I drive in dirt a lot. Ill try the bolt idea. Thanks.
