Noisy Kartboy End Link
My rear passenger Kartboy end link is making a lot of squeaking / clunking noises when going over bumps. I can hear it real well going slowly over speed bumps in a parking lot.
I wasn't sure what was making the noise at first, so I put the car up on ramps. While shaking the car (by pushing / pulling on the rear sway bar) I could reproduce the noise. Once I figured out that the noise was coming from the end link, I undid the bolt attaching the end link to the sway bar. I could then reproduce the squeaking noise by rotating the end link around the 2nd bolt that was still attached. The funny thing is that only the passenger side end link makes this noise. Has anybody else had an end link make this noise? Is there something that can be done to fix it?

Grease that bad boy
Squeeks are normal, any kind of moly grease will fix it, it's a urethane bush noise is not that unusual!!
The clunk sound strange, are you sure it's installed correctly..pics? Also, check the sway bar brackets, possible a bolt is backing out!! |
