Have any of you had problems with the rear swaybar end links?

What are the symptoms of the links/bushings failing?

Thanks ....

probably a squirmy ride in the corners, noise during articulation, more body roll than usual. unless a link outright breaks it'll be difficult to detect since the sway bar is still connected, just very sloppily without a bushing.
 






I had the front swaybar bushings go bad in my '01 X. Symptoms were a clunk in the suspension when hitting bumps. Never felt a change in ride characteristics.

Thats the sound I am having, only in the rear. I can only hear it going throughthe drive thru at the bank.

Looks like it time for new end linkd.
