Hey guys, looking for some input from those with more knowledge than me. My right rear wheel clunks when I drive. It sounds almost exactly like it would if you have ever driven off from somewhere without tightening your lug nuts all the way (my lug nuts are tightened all the way). I also have on new tires so that is not the problem. Is there a bearing in there that will go out causing this to happen? I noticed that the clunking goes away when I am going around corners which I attribute to the wheel being pushed up against whatever is loose (if that makes sense). Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you.

Salica, I'm pretty sure it is not my struts or springs.
TRD I'll double check my endlinks and sway bar bushing although I don't see how those would cause this noise. Jimmy, the sound is constant when driving straight. -------------------- ![]() We shall show mercy, but we shall not ask for it. |

Jimmy, the sound is constant when driving straight. if no sway bar bushings the bar will move around and clank around the bracket. If the endlinks are bad, they will move around like a broken joint. I've done suspension many times and have changed these parts out for many cars. -------------------- 94 Celica GT
