So Cody, did you find the source of your front end clunk is a disintegrated sway bar bushing or what? Don't be coy. Its just us.

Re: Sway Bar Bushing Replacement..anyone ever done? Procedure? DIY?
I replaced all the front end bushings in my car DIY style.. I used baby powder on the swaybar bushings to lube them so they dont tear, then sat the car down on the ground and torqued ber bentley. All front end bushings need to have the wheels on the ground before they get the final torque. IMHO
pretty easy job but a biach to get the sway bar up there with the new bushings. I ended up using to jacks to hold the bar and the worked it into place, got stuff semisnug and then put the car down, and torqued..

Well the front end clunk was a broken right side Strut mount (rubber piece)
That helped the noise alot..but still getting noise in what they think is the Strut Bar Bushings.
