So when we (myself, Hoagie and CrashDan) did my body lift we did not know to remove the safety loop. And since we didn't I kept having a clunk with every turn I made. It felt and sounded like someone hitting a sledge hammer under the two front seats as well as on the floor in the back seat. Here is how to remove it and stop the annoying clunk!
This is your safety loop... it's located between the front and rear tires at the end of the rear out put shaft close to the yolk end. It loops through the cross member.
You will need a 14 ratchet and perhaps some PB Blaster. If you can't get the two bolts loose, blast it and wait a bit. I thankfully didn't have to blast them.
Be advised- if you already did your body lift then the first bolt is under A LOT of pressure. With that being said, be careful because the first bolt will fling out of the threads once loose enough.
Once you remove both bolts you can turn the safety loop and slide it out of the holes on the cross member.
Ta da!! Removed and no more clunk on the test drive.
