suspension noise
Been hearing noise from the rear of the car...Its a 03 galant. If you push on the rear of the car, especially passengers side, it will make a creaking sound. Dont think its the shocks....Wasnt that noticeable but tonight you could hear it pretty good. Now does it when you turn. What all could it be in the back of the car? :087:

Rear end link? Is that part of the sway bar? I'm sorry, new to the mits world
-
yup, rear sway bar to the lower control arm. Mine made alot of noise when turning

Thanks for the info. Cant really get it to make much noise parked and rocking the rear end side to side mainly just pushing up and down of the right rear of the car. Also hear noise if im going slow and hit brakes pretty good. Like when the cars weight shifts a bit. How hard is it to change it/them out?

It's easy, just jack the rear of the car up to take the load off the suspension, use jack stands, then just take off the endlinks and install the new ones. Don't even need to take the wheels off
EDIT:
You will need some wrenches, I think 10mm to 14mm, a hex key set, you put the hex in the end of the bolt on the stock ones to keep the bolt from spinning so you can get the nut off.

Sweet. Hope that fixes it....Should i replace both sides?
-
yeah I would do both rear endlinks at the same time
