    Rear suspension noise

    Hey guys I've got a problem with the rear suspension on a '95.

    Whenever I go over speed bumps in a straight line it won't do any noise but whenever I go over the bumps diaganolally so each wheel passes over at a time I may hear a "clunk" type of noise when each rear wheel passes over.

    My struts and mounts are about 3 months old. I got 17".

    Thanks for any advice!

    Your tires are probably rubbing. Examine the rear wheel well for rub evidence. Also look at the rear tires for cut or rub marks.

    Did you do any suspension mods? check all your suspenison bolt to see if there tight. also try to notice any rubbing mark from the wheel.

    I swapped the 13" wheels to the rear to check if it was rubbing but the noise persists. It's more of a "clunking" noise rather than scrapping.

    I'm going to check also suspension arm bushings later on to see if I can get to the problem.

    THanks !
