strut rod bushing

[topher5150]

I've been doing some searching about the strut rod bushing causing the car to pull during braking. would this bushing make any klunking noise.

 

[Blenderhead]

It could, depends how bad it is.

 

[kustomizingkid]

I'm sure it could....

 

[Lownslowlsc]

when i bought my car i thought the brakes were bad. ended up being the srb's, pulling when brakeing and such. No cluncking though. You got some front susp. prob's.

 

[MediumD]

Yeah. The strut rod bushings are pretty much shot in my friends 97... rest of the front suspension looks good. It clunks. A lot.

I went over a nice speed hump last night and heard something making a klunking noise

there are 4 on each side of the car.....2 frt and 2 rear of that rod and available.
the frt/frt is a e9sz-3b271-a listing at 11.65 ea and lvc is $8.74 ea
the frt/rear is f7sz-3a225-aa listing 5.83 ea and LVC is $4.37ea
the rear/frt is e9sz-3a140-a listing $8.79 ea and LVC is $6.59ea
the rear/rear is e9sz-3a140-b listing $12.50 and LVC is $9.38 ea
for a total of 58.16 for all 4 bushings.

That's a pretty good deal. When I get my taxes I will order some up

Hey Max do you have those in stock? I need to get the ones for the strut rod to the frame and Ill be up at your end of town later on today.

 

[wood_e]

I had an awful clunk from the srb's on my SHO. I never fixed it though. Sometimes the cups the bushings sit in on the frame can become loose and either requires a new kit (moog has a "problem solver" for this), or requires welding of the cups at the frame.

Hi Chris

The shop sold a set yesterday and the replacements will not be here til monday...I do have 1 frt and 2 rear at the frame....I am short one in the frt frame, and no one else here in town stocks them but me....sorry.
I will put a frt set of 4 with your name on them for monday if you like..

It will absolutely throw your toe angles way off.

Yeah if your front end does this then the bushings are shot just like mine

Hey guys, is there a tutorial mainly the front , somewhere? I'm not really familiar with suspension. I wouldn't know what is what.

 

[topher5150]

so it pulls left when i brake, but when i'm driving it drifts to the right could this be the strut rod bushing also?
