Hey guys I need some help with in about the last month my ranger started a really loud thumping noise on the front end it's not all the time it will even go days with out doing it but some times it will do it for day's also. It seems to thump louder and slower the slower I go then it will thump faster the faster I go up to about 30-35 mpg then it stops. I am newer to wheeling and trucks in general looking for a lite help. What is it and how do I get it to stop? Thanks for the feed back.

Still looking for feedback guys, I feel like it is mostly isolated to the left side. Any ideas?

I am sorry, this request cannot be processed at this time. You have failed to provide sufficient information about the vehicle in question.
