Weird rattling noise in front
Weird rattling noise in front
Whenever i go over small bumps.. It sounds like 2 sets of steel chains rattling.. Its going on in the front end.. Sounds like something is very loose. Any ideas?

I got a 91' Bird >> Same thing...... New rims and tires balanced and inflated properly, replaced struts and end link bolts. While on jacks, pulled and yanked on everything >> Tie-rods, springs, breaks, framing, exhaust, drive shaft >> NOTHING BUDGED! Subscribed! I have heard this question asked many times. Same problem? Possible... Good question....

Easiest way to tell if it's sway bar related it to remove one of the links and take it for a drive. If the noise is still there, it's something else.

Sounds like a sway bar end link problem, as mentioned above. It should be pretty easy to spot if it is, just reach in there and play with em and see if they rattle.
