a clanging tinny sound on front right on startup.

Do you have barwork? My TJM Bar has a guard under it that was loose and had a tinny sound on start up but would quickly disappear.... too forever to chase that down.

I though I needed to replace the bushes but turned out to be the bolts were loose (thumbs up to me for checking that one before ordering bushes). The ram would knock/rattle on start and bumps but a lower, less tinny noise.

I think you might be on the money:) It was getting late and I started it and heard the clanging again. Had a look at the rams and found it very sloppy at the top bush, inf act the rubber kept falling out as I rocked it.
oh well another job

Get someone else to start it in the morning, it may go through a cycle on startup and you will see/hear the movement better.

You are very close, it ended up being the piece of tin cat guard that is welded on either end and sits below the cat.
One of the welds failed and on start up it clanger. I didn't weld it back yet, will take to an exhaust place to mig it up.

i fixed it temporarily with a big jubilee clamp, noise now gone
