Hints on what to look for?
When making a left turn over rough ground... I'm hearing a loud clack from my left rear wheel area. (please don't say broken strut even if it is) When I bounce up and down on the rear bumper it stops bouncing immediately, not like a bad rear strut... I think I will know if I see anything broken up there I just want to know if anyone has had this happen .

Check for a rusted and broken strut mount.

Lightly step on the brakes while diagnosing this problem. If sound disappears, then its your pads rattling. If not, I go with Beav.

Remember - noises are not good! Ooops I'm sure it isn't anything a little tender loving care won't fix along with some other work. Good luck with the search! jWhat were you doing on those gravel roads anyway?

Is the left side of the car lower than the right?
Is the back of the car sitting a little low? The rear st*** mou*** usually rust out in p**rs.
