Do you hear a clunking noise under your car or truck? You might think it's something like a shock or strut, or ball joint, or even a control arm. But, there are a couple other overlooked things it could be. In this video, Cristian points you to the sway bar bushing. Sway bar bushings are usually rubber, and they deteriorate and stop cushioning the sway bar where it mounts to the vehicle body or frame, which can lead to an annying repetitive banging noise!

  • Great video. Some of the trackday crowd advises to wrap the swaybar with teflon tape to avoid metal-on-rubber contact when the silicone grease eventually wears off or dries out. The teflon tape is mostly to avoid annoying squeaky sounds, but I think this could help the swaybar rotate smoothly and keep the car behaving predictably.

  • If only the bushings where this easy to replace on all vehicles. Had to do it on and early 2000s cavalier and it was the worst. The car was not worth all the problems it had. The wisconsin weather really did a number on the car. But it was my ex's grandmas car so i tried my best to keep it safe and working for her.

  • Thanks much for your video. I didn't know this. I bought new bushings for my 2000 Camry LE back sway bar. So the bushings are on bear metal. A mechanic put the new bushings on I didn't watch him. Oh geez. I've been wanting to put heavier sway bars on the Camry. I'm customizing the Camry. So where do I buy silicone paste?

  • My Scion TC is making this sound even after changing struts/balljoint + lower control arm. Sway bar link looked good nothing torn but I did not check the sway bar bushing. Intro of this video convinced me it's the same clunk ass noise it's making under on both side driver and passenger on speed bumps.

  • My 2015 Subaru Forester XT rattles and shakes past 55/ 60 mph. If I slightly turn the steering wheel while driving or making a turn at a similar speed or faster it stops the shaking. Now that the check engine light randomly comes on the rattling/ shaking has stopped. When the check engine light is off the shakiness comes back at 55 mph or faster... Guess ill check sway bar end link's and bushings.
