I know <DIV></DIV>&gt;the upper control arm bushing needs replacing... but what other <DIV></DIV>&gt;components could be responsible for making clunking noises on rough <DIV></DIV>&gt;roads. I've replaced the shocks so I know they've been installed <DIV></DIV>&gt;properly. Are there other bushings I should be looking at or some <DIV></DIV>&gt;rubber bits? <DIV></DIV>&gt; <DIV></DIV>&gt;Any suggestions appreciated. <DIV></DIV>&gt; <DIV></DIV>&gt;Barry Mercer <DIV></DIV>&gt;Sudbury Ontario <DIV></DIV>&gt; <DIV></DIV>&gt;Moo 88 westy 180k Km <DIV></DIV></div><br clear=all><hr>Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: <a href='http://g.msn.com/1HM1ENUS/c152??PI=44364'>Click Here</a><br></html>
