I took my car to a local shop because of a rattle thats been there for about a month. It usually happens when I go over small bumps. They said both front upper control arms needed replaced due to the ball joints and the sway bar bushings were bad. With a grand total of 600 dollars I didn't want to pay so i did it myself with a fairly mechanical backround. There was some play on both sides, as well as the bushings looked due. So 220 dollars later doing it myself I still hear the noise. I keep reading posts about compression rods? Visually moving parts around trying to get the noise to happen with the car in the air i cant get any noise or movement that shouldn't be there. Everything appears tight and no play? My question is, how can I check the compression rods? They appear good and I've tried hitting it with a dead blow and there is no noise or movement as far as i can see? I've used a second jack to raise the suspension to see if anything changed and got sloppy? It all seems tight? I'm at a standstill?!! Help me!?!
