Rear End Popping Noise

[hite337]

M4rk...Did you ever get that subframe insulator fixed? I am chasing a rear end knock and I am going to replace the stabilizer bar bushings because I can hear a knocking sound when I move the bar. I am also going to replace the upper control arms because I can see the rubber is torn in the ball joint. While I was looking around I saw my subframe insulators looking just like yours.

No, sir. Haven't touched them as there is no play in them, nor any noises. With the car sitting on all 4, the tear/gap closes up.

Think yours have deteriorated from within?

I don't think they are the source of my knocking, I just noticed they were torn and remembered this thread. I'm sure the knocking sound is my stabilizer bar bushings and/or upper control arms. I need to replace the LCAs, UCAs, stabilizer bar bushings, bearings and half shafts. I may as well do the LSD conversion while I'm in there!
