    What brand of shock bushings did you install? HD or regular? Certainly easier to check the sway-bar bushings but mine are original and I'm on a second set of shock mounts at 140,000 miles.

    Default Does a bad rear sway bar link

    Sound like a package in the trunk bouncing up and down over bumps? I'm hoping it's this and not one of my year old shock mounts.

    I haven't had time to look yet though.

    loose tools in your tool kit?
    It's pot hole time in our area. I had to re attach my top strut nut Saturday after it worked it's way loose after banging through the annual mine field.

    Shock mounts are meyle. Shocks are KYB GR-2s. It doesn't sound like the tools are loose, but that's a good thought. I'll check in the morning.
