rear bushings clunk
so i did the 20 min mod and new RSB bushings in the rear and now I have this horrible clunk. Is this normal with the 20 min mod (more of a rigid mount type of thing) or is it a poly bushing issue thing or is there another issue? I'm not an idiot here I know how to work on a car so I don't think it is my skills lacking so is this normal or ??????????
I got the rear bushings from Summit using the PN that is in another thread here somewhere. I reused the factory "U" mounts but I have to say that the bar doesn't feel that solidly mounted. Opinions?

A bolt is classified by the diameter of the threaded shaft of the bolt. On a Subaru a 6mm bolt uses a 10 mm head, and usually an 8 mm bolt has a 12 mm head, and a 10 mm bolt has a 14 mm head. 25 mm long will be fine.

Re: rear bushings clunk
What "mod" had been done that created the clunk?
Mine has a rapid clunking sound slow speeds, rough roads along with terrible suspension squeak. Has NEW rear strut mounts, but didn't change either noise. |
