[Healeys] knock

[Alan Seigrist]

Jim -

Have you checked to see if the lower A-Arm's bolt/bush link to the
king pin has come off?  If this happens you can get this symptom.

Also, check the wheel bearing shimming - if it is slightly under
shimmed and the disk is loose, you can get this symptom too.
