Update: Turns out both rear upper control arms had snapped. Replaced uppers, lowers, and the sway bar bushings and it’s like new again. Thanks!

Hello all, A new issue has popped up recently. A couple days ago I was at a stop sign and when hitting the gas heard and felt a big clunk from the rear like when switching from reverse to drive. The whole vehicle jolted. Ever since, there’s been increasingly worse vibrations, rattling...

Ebay.

Definitely. I’ll be replacing most of the components with Moog, and with ball joints/bushings already installed.

Update: After tightening everything according to specs the popping sounds are gone. I’m pretty sure it was the end links. The rest of the front suspension is still sloppy, but that’s a different problem. I need new control arms, tie rods, etc...

Yes, but I'm second guessing if they were tight enough.

I'll try tightening everything first with the torque specs, then go from there. Thanks!

I haven't been able to access the store. It's always down for some reason. Any idea which parts I would need?
