Random rattle from right front!
So I can hear a rattle coming from the right front of my car. It is not any of the suspension parts as I had it up on the lift today and checked all bearings and joints. My mechanic and I thought it might be that the strut insert might be bad and rattling around inside, anyone have any ideas about that or any other suggestions what it might be?? Thanks in advance.

Sounds like the linkage. Its kinda hard to explain, but look for a bolt that looks broken on the front right or left.
This part cost around 20 bucks, and unless you have a lift. This a bitch to replace.
I used the lift at my school, and it took about 1 and a 1/2 hours.

ha I have a new idler arm there
as above stated I checked all bushings and such
I have a lift and a full compliment of tools, I can't imagine anything in there taking an hour and and a half to replace, even changing the whole suspension looks like it could be done in an hour and a halff.
I will ask my mechanic friend who lets me work in his garage about the stablizer linkage.
