Default Drivetrain weird Noise : Help

Grinding noise when both tires goes on bumps. Feels like the shocks are bottoming out. I checked the shocks and its fine, axles are new also.
It doesn't do it when one wheel goes on the bump, both wheels have to be on the bump.


TIA

Hmm, do you have a front sway bar? Sounds like a bushing is ripped, or the damper is probably not assembled properly...

Was it working before and just happened or did you do any suspension modifying before then?

I have the stock sway bars that came with the car.
It just happened.

I drove the car yesterday as well. It's weird. It will only make the noise if both wheels hit a bump at the same time. Like coming up onto the expansion joints of a bridge. The car has to be moving as well. If you get to people and just push down on the front of it repeatedly to make it bouce, it wont make the noise. Hopefully, well get a chance to take a look at it tomorrow or saturday.

sounds to me that the axles could possibly be hitting. if it doesn't make the noise then obviously it has to be something in motion. cv joints ?
