Are you guys lowered on CO's? aftermarket Sways?

I know our cars are notorious for weak sway bar endlinks and that may be to blame...could also be a bushing thats on its way out...

My guess would be endlink though...

oh that's right. I totally didn't even think about my rear endlinks. I got spl fronts but it's just too much for the rears too :-/

U think that might be it cuz mine has been making that noise even b4 I dropped mine. It seems to do it when I hit bumps and when I let go of the brake pedal. Really weird. I've been thinking it might be my caliper but I've taken the b!itch apart like 5 times and UT seems fine!

Haha nice, I hadn't heard anything since you said you drove by. So what kind of unit are you renting? I just moved out a week ago, but I'm just up the road still, renting my friend's 4b 2 1/2bath house with my girlfriend I'm actually finishing up the moveout process this week as my official move out date is actually this coming Sunday. I should be done by tomorrow though, just cleaning and some touchup paint (though since I've been there over 2 years I technically don't have to do that apparently).

i think she meant she revved the hell out of it... i shoulda paraphrased below. haha. well her work pays for it, so why put the miles on her car? plus, i have to replace one of the rear wheel bearings on her car when the part comes in. so i really dont want her drivin far on the squeeky wheel... if they werent gonna give her a rental, she'da been rollin my car... ya'll coulda spotted my dirty ol whip over there maybe.
