the never ending clunk

[BadAzzexplr]

Ok it doesn;t really matter if they are bolted upside or downside, but the problem I found with the polys is they don;t compress well. So in certain weather conditions you will see that clunk.

I had polys on mine and every time I used my ac or really hot conditions the clunk would return and it was because the bushing was getting warped from water dripping on it from the ac compressor.

I strongly suggest getting the ford ones because they worked for you this long, and I just put them in mine and so far no clunk. Again they have plastic covering over the bushing so its protected.

Btw here are the part #s

2L2Z-5K483-BA Link $2.52 Each
F77Z-5495-BA Stud $4.58 Each
F77z-5C491-BA Nut $3.15

Hey so for $20.50 your in business for another 1 year or more and no clunk.

I'll tell you what got rid of my clunk.
Look at the pic of your sway bar end. See the rubber boot on the tie rod?
I slid back the clamp and used an ice pick to push in between the boot & rao so I could get the WD-40 spray tube under the boot. Sprayed for about 30 sec. and buttened it all back up. Do both sides. Clunk is gone.
I found this after a long search for the work clunk.
Its worked for others & worked for me.
Good luck....

Ever figure it out? If not, check the transmission crossmember bolts, mine were loose and it got rid of that clunk.
