Is it just wore out bushings? When I put the car under a load (load the suspension) or hit a bump in the road my drivers side LCA pops. Sounds nasty. I need to fix it....I think it's the bushing. Anybody else have this same situation?
Thanks

OMFG do not get poly for the rear LCA's. Yes that will decrease deflection to limit wheel hop but it will also cause bind when cornering which effectively acts like a larger rear sway bar. This will in turn cause the car to have more oversteer. Instead if you want something that handles correctly, decreases wheel hop and has quiet opperation the best option is to replace the stock bushings with the solid Moog bushings. The other thing you can try before replacing the bushings is to loosen the the bolts holding the LCA's in place. Then with the suspension under load retighten them. This is a common problem from when people put their rear suspension back together and typically won't happen if it's never been apart. I would however give this a try either way.
