Front End Rattle

[Mtnman]

Ok boys and girls. Looking for some help here. I have a metal on metal sounding rattle from the front end area of my car when I go over bumps and heavily alligatored pavement.

3 weeks ago, i installed H and R cup kit (shocks, springs, struts). today, I installed Meyle HD Lower control arm bushings...(thanks for the write up keith..that only took an hour and a half total time because of you)

My car feels great with the new bushings, but the rattle is still there. I thought it was coming from the bushings, but obviously it was not. What else could it be? where should i begin to look? If i cant figure this out, Ill have to take it to someone and pay them for to investigate it.

Thanks in advance!

Sounds like it could be your endlinks. If you can get the front wheels off the ground, grab the sway bar and yank it back and forth. There should be no noise at all.

Speaks from experience...almost a month of troubleshooting. Which BTW, what's the current status of your car, James?

Alright. Fixed. Thanks ZSP!! Passenger sway bar end link was loose. tightened it and no more rattle. Perfect. Car is alive again with new suspension and new LCABS. Thanks everyone.
