Re: Loud bang out of my right side front
What are your shocks like? I've got the same problem and im thinking that the shocks are tired. Im thinking that the shock hits the bottom of the cylinder and makes the thud.

Sounds like bad motor mount or tranny mount to me - I had one with this - was bad motor mount.

Re: Loud bang out of my right side front
Could be broken sway link, missing, bushins, bad ball joint tierods, broken spring. Best thing you can do is jack it up and shake it and see what moves or if something is broke.

Re: Loud bang out of my right side front
Check the idler arm. the slightest bit of play will make a loud thump you can feel on acceleration. just grab it and push up and down that joint should have no play at all.

i had the exact same problem a few years back & it drove me nuts.its the tranny mount(i'm 100% on this).the rubber failed & that sound is your drive line smacking around.
get a energy suspension replacement & the problem will be gone.
