blk_on_blk Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 If it's a thud/rattle sound, that's your sway bar bushings... many threads on that. Easy to replace and the sound goes away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blk_on_blk Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 You can check it yourself... with the vehicle parked and off, just reach up an push/pull on the rear sway bar. If you can get noticeable movement, then that is a good indicator that's your problem. If it is, the bushing are like $15 for the set (of two), and they are super easy to replace. Just unbolt, remove/replace, and rebolt. I wrote a quick little DIY with pictures on here... I'm sure you can find it with the search function on this board.
