My car is still jingling underneath. It sounds like it is coming from the front. Maybe something in the front suspension? People told me to check the cat and I banged on it pretty gooo but it didn't make any noise and seemed to be in there pretty firm. I tried jacking up the car a bit to see if maybe the emergency brake cable might be hitting the driveshaft but it wasn't and I didn't see anything loose. I recently put new pads on the brakes if that might mean something. It is really starting to get annoying as hell to hear that noise while I am driving Any help guys

 

I looked under the car again today to see if I could find anything that looked loose but I couldn't. I don't think I am looking in the right areas. What areas should I look at to find out what possibly might be making the noise. It is embarassing to have this nice sounded muscle car going down the street but jingling too. Makes it sound cheap

 

Sound like coins in your pocket?

It's the sway bar end links.

 

How do I check if they are any good? I think you might have found the problem because that is what it sounds like. How hard is it to replace these? Thanks for the help.

 

Just replace them. It takes like 10 minutes, and you can buy polyurethane ones on cards hanging at Auto Zone. It's about the simplest suspension repair there is, usually easier than changing spark plugs.

 

Make sure the end link spacers (the tubes that run between the bushings) are the same length as yours or it'll throw off your suspension geometry.

 

My '87 IROC has made this same noise ever since I got the car (late '89). Thanks!

 

The car I just bought does it too. Thanks!

 

I had been looking for this answer as well.

Thanks, Oscar R.

 

When I bought my Firebird, my rear end links were missing! I think that was the first mechanical work I ever did to my '86... ah, the good 'ol days.

 

could you be more specific on the noise??? like coins in the pocket<--not sure if this is me....and what would be wrong with the endlinks?? i have replaced just the bushings, but not the actual endlinks. thanks
