I recently replaced my upper control arms and bolts, lower ball joints and had alignment taken care of. Now I hear a clunking noise only on my right side, and it isn't all the time. Could it be my sway bar or lower control arm bushings? If it is the lower arm bushings, is it better to replace the whole arm or just the bushings? Just need some input. Thanks!
 






Sway bar links are a more common problem, control arm bushings are not normally a problem unless you have a ton of miles on it. One of my Expo's bushings started to wear out at 320,000 miles.
 






Yeah, it has 150K on it, I think I am going the cheaper way of Sway Bar Bushings and Links first... Thanks!
