Re: front end clunk when backing up?

i tired to pull the upper bushings today with no luck. i did how ever got the rubber out of one and it was fine. just around the very edges that stick out where the bolt head and nut is a little cracked. i couldn't see any place it wore though. i was looking at my brakes and it looks like theres a place on the calipair that looks like the pad might be hitting. could this cause it?

Re: front end clunk when backing up?

i have finally solved the clunk!!! turned out that rlith was correct. it was the upper control arm bushings. $8.99 at auto zone. not the easiest to replace, but a little heat and a big vice&hammer got the job done. thanks to all who contributed. if anyone has any questions about symptoms or fixes that i had tried, fire away! thanks again everyone, she's like new again!

Re: front end clunk when backing up?

replaced both sides. how do i check the hubs. upper ball joints might have 500 miles on them and the lowers are about 2,000 maybe? i did see a place on the control arm that was hitting. i'm going to put some rubber there and see if it goes away.
