    When I hit bumps the passenger side rear makes a couple 'popping' sounds. (sounds like passenger side, at least)

    Havent gotten around to looking (to cold)
    It started doing this maybe a month ago...

    Was wondering if anybody had any sugestions.


    Thanks,
    Eric

    You live in Virgina and are saying too cold? Wuss, get under the car.

    It's likely a sway bar end link, spring, or strut mount.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    Link pins in these do go bad often. easy to check. get down and try to move it up and down at base of sway bar (at link).if it makes a noise...BINGO!!

    How many miles are on the car.

    Most likely the strut mounts. I had the same problem, popping/clunking noise when going over bumps.
    98 GTP-Mods? Yeah, lots of them
