I have been hearing a thumping sound in the front end of my 88 420SEL, I ordered a new set of Bilstien shocks and installed them last Sat. afternoon, I really helped the ride and quieted down the thump but it is still there, it is very noticable on gravel, thats why I thought it was a shock bottoming out but now I am leaning toward bushings, I handles like a dream on the open road with no indication of a problem but when on rough roads or gravelled lots or roads it is still there. Can anyone suggest the next step in the repair process. Tnx, Tim
