Endlinks might be toasted.

care to elaborate a bit more not sure what the end links are im a newb :S sadly
thx for the help though!

Is your bumper fluid low? It requires proper lubrication!

Sure LanceR, here are some pics of endlinks. This is from a Civic, but you get the point. The end links are in the red boxes:

If it's not the end links, this might be next possible cause for the 'clanking' noise. Lubing is everything.:rolleyes:

Good luck.

awesome....im gonna jack up my car now and go check it out thanks for the support guys ;D appreciate it big time...ill let u know how it comes along

Sounds like a worn out trailing arm bushing.

found out the noise is coming from my rear left caliper its missing the boot :S....and also the previous owner of the car had brake pads on that dont even fit my teg... =P

Do end links by any chance make a VERY loud metal clunk? and would u guys know if it sets the car height off..lets just say... 1.5inch diff between driver rear, n passenger rear height.

I always keep mine just under the MAX line for safety....:laugh1: :laugh1: :laugh1:

is your spare tire in the trunk tightened down enough???

so how did he fit brake pads on that dont fit???
