Clunk felt in steering wheel at acceleration.

[FKNRANGER]

I have read all over these forums about clunking and slip yokes, nowhere have i read what describes my issue, it starts about 20 min into driving and only happens when I'm at a full stop and accelerate, it almost feels like the steering wheel moves up and down then it goes away and drives fine. I have a 2.5 rough country level kit that was installed by dealer, I saw that RC says these wont work on Tremors, has anyone with the RC installed had any issues? Driving me nuts, all my suspension is tight and cant find anything that sticks out.

is your tilt/telescoping lever locked?

Yea just checked, its a clunk you feel in steering wheel , no movement at all in steering wheel, feels like whole steering wheel is moving up and down, almost like something is bound up.

i'd refer to this and try and eliminate items.
i'd suspect something during the install of the level kit.

Thanks will start going through checks.

Ever figure it out? I have a tremor and noticed it today on acceleration from a stop.

Hitting a good bump I feel like a slight 'thunk' in the steering wheel.

No real noise, almost like a small jolt in the feel.
