So I have been hearing a clunk and squeaky noise from the front right side. The clunk happens over bumps, acceleration and stomping. The squeaky noise occurs at low speeds and is not very loud 10-20mph and is pretty consistent until moving faster.
The car has BC coilovers and is not slammed.
Tie rods were replaced 1 month ago as well as the CV joints. I discovered last wee]k that the damping was set to max stiffness last week and I quickly set it of 7f /5r which has helped slightly.
I've attached some photos as best I could get at the moment during my lunch time.
My money would be on lower control arm bushings. The vertical bushings on the back of the arm wear out and cause sounds similar to what you're describing.

Having the shorter sway bar end links is more critical in the rear once its lowered. I dont think you can go shorter than what you have in the front. (i dont think those fronts are OEM).
I'll have to check the rear ones. I'm thinking about just getting new control arms to not have to deal with pressing and burning the bushings
Only had the car for a month. Have had to get a lot of stuff fixed ?

The sway bar end links aren't stock but as Gump said you don't want to go smaller than that. As for control arms, if you replace the whole thing go with MOOG and get the ones with problem solver bushings for the vertical bushings. They are a solid bushing vs the rubber ones that fail.
Ok so, im changing out my rack and pinion, and control arm bushings while im at it. All was going well :clap:until i got to the last bolt on the passanger side rear control arm bolt ( the big one that mounts the arm and cross-member to the frame rail). The bolt broke loose but then so did the...
I'm trying to decide which way to go when it comes to replacing my struts. Plan is to keep the stock springs for now and then upgrade to either mopar or progress springs in the future.
With that in mind which has the better ride with stock springs?
Which strut, Koni Inserts or OEM, would you...
I need to replace the bolt that is on the passenger side control arm. Is it the one that is right behind the lower motor mount and is pretty long. On the other side of the bolt there is some sort of nut that helps tighten the bolt down.
My issue is when the control arm was loosened at some...
Hey guys. I need help. I was installing my new lower control arms with Moog Problem Solvers for the rear vertical bushing but when I went to go torque them the washer on the bushing just bends. I didn't even get to 100 ft/lbs of torque. The torque is supposed to be around 160 ft/lbs. Are these...
